Not sure on a B-body, but on an A-body non AC, you don't have to pull the box all the way out.
Just seperate it enough to where you can pull the heater core out. That way you don't have to mess with the heater controls... would suck to break those..

a few days ago, there was coolant on my mat under where the heater box is
but, after that leak, nothing has come out
but, it has been very hot here the past week (100's)
is it possible that the heat is masking the problem by allowing the metal to expand to temporarily seal the leak?

Have you ever ran stop leak through the system?
if yes, the heater core may be plugged and thats possible as to what caused it to blow, and another reason as to why its not leaking now.
A good way to test: start your car, get it to 180, and tach it up. See if it blows out. The pressure SHOULD cause it to open up.
But, replace it anyways...
