Password never expires is a bit in a userAccountControl attribute so
assuming that You will have auditing enabled for this attribute and You
will get information that this attribute was changed by one of Your
sysadmins you will not get to know which bit was changed ... unless You
are using W2008 and its new auditing capabilities. I've never tried to
audit changes on useraccountcontrol in particular but it should present
you old and new value and based on that you will be able to say which
bits were changed.

If You don't have auditing enabled best what You can do now is to track
which DC has originating this change and then try to get to know which
of sysadmins was logged on at this time there based on security logs.
