I took a quick look at mhmsgfile.pl. It is responsible for parsing
messages pages in mha-dbrecover. It appears that having stuff before
the comments will not break things. However, the <!--X-Head-End-->
comment is still needed since it is used to terminate the parsing of
the header comments.
The cleanest approach to your problem is to have a resource that allows
you to define text to be printed on a message page before any MHonArc
generated data. The toughest part of this solution is to come up with
a good name for the resource.
