You can have complete control.
Try adjusting your example coding like this, for example:

\lhead{
\HeaderFont
  \setbox0=\hbox{%
   \begin{tabular}[]{l}
     MSDS 31.2 \\
     \multirow{5}{2in}{Hot Hot Basecoat Colors, Hot Powder
     Additives, Hot Candy Colors and Related ProductsEfxHues}%
   \end{tabular}}\dimen0=\baselineskip
   \advance\dimen0\dp0\advance\dimen0\ht0
   \leavevmode\raise \dimen0\box0
}

The attached image shows the result:

BTW, this is hardly a pdfTeX specific question.
Any other TeX or LaTeX list would have been more appropriate.


Hope this helps,
