What type engine, 6 or 4. You state "coolant was sprayed all over the engine". The thermostat is at one end.
My guess would be the top radiator hose or heater hose. The bottom hose, besides being towards the bottom of the engine usually has coolant that lower in temperature, perhaps being less likely to suffer from a high temp leak. Also, if it had a pin hole leak, I would think the coolant would be localized to the bottom of the engine. The top hose, coming out of the engine has hot coolant.
Temp guage remained normal because you did not completely run out of coolant.
Of course, I might be completely wrong.
