The Temple veil, or curtain, was described in considerable detail (Wars of the Jews, Book 5) by the historian, Josephus, who was a priest before 70 CE and would have been familiar with it. Josephus makes no mention of any damage to it, nor any evidence of repairs, as anyone familiar with the gospel account would expect.
The gospel account was actually written after the destruction of the Temple in 70 CE and could therefore be expected to be the last word on the tearing of the veil, so it is only fortuitous that someone who knew about the appearance of the curtain before that time, chose to write in so much detail about it.

There is no historical record confirming whether the curtain in the Jerusalem temple was repaired or not after the death of Jesus. It is mentioned in The Bible that the curtain in the temple was torn in two from top to bottom at the moment of Jesus' death, symbolizing the access to God being opened to all people through Jesus.
