Michael;
        There are two types of head leaks, internal and external. The
first thing I would look at is the coolant reservoir. It should be
absolutely filled i.e. no air at all.
        I would think it is a very good sign if the overflow tank has
good looking coolant between the min and max limits.
        Next I would just ask the owner if possible.

Drive Safely & Good Luck
