Yea, unfortunately there is no way to sort it out. As noted, your initial radiator problem might have had a bad head gasket as the underlying cause; OR the initial radiator failure & overheating may have warped the head/blown the gasket; OR the later events could have killed the head; OR there is still the possibility of a coincidence.
