It's a clogged pipe before heater core (show stopper)

They checked the temp on the pipes going in/out of the HC. Seems pretty clear that at one of the bends the temp goes from 100+ down to 70ish. The thinking is that there's something clogging that pipe.
Also, there's no coolant coming out of the HC apparently.
The thinking is that some part of the valve internals must have broken off and is now lodged in that pipe. So my HC isn't getting any fluid.
Majorly expensive fix as it involves getting at / removing those lines. Replacing only the HC would be an easier job.
Might be time to sell my beloved 9-5. Freaking dammit. ;-(
