Neither is there any evidence of the fate of the Dragon-helm beside a note in which Húrin should receive it from the Halad of Brethil - but since the conception of the Halad being friendly to Húrin was completely turned upside down, I think that this scenario was rejected.

Also, since Túrin wore the Helm when he killed Glaurung, I don't think it unlikely that the Helm was buried along with Túrin - and moreover, it would be a fitting end of the House of Hador - its greatest heirloom buried for ever alongside the heir of Dor-lómin.

Of course, as you said, there is no textual evidence for that, but I simply had to find a fitting way of resolving the fate of the Helm of Hador - besides, every other attempt at resolving its loose end would be a concoction too - my no better than the rest.
