It looks like I have unintentionally resolved my own issue. Hopefully my solution/non-solution can help anybody else having this issue.

During a moodle update today I noticed there were some themes that were missing from disk. So after the update, I went into my Plugins Overview and uninstalled themes that were missing (we weren't using any of them anyways) just to tidy up a little and just for kicks I thought I'd try clicking the check for updates button again. To my surprise, I didn't get an error this time but rather a response saying "Your Moodle code is up-to-date!"


Anyways, it seems to me that if there is anything to do with your themes being missing, your update check will fail also.
