While my old radiator was sitting out I took a picture of it. It's not such a surprise that the thing failed on me any more.
It's hard to see, since the phone is very low-res, but that white spot on the left side is where the tube blew out. It's actually a bigger split than I thought, about a half-inch long. And the green color isn't an artifact of the camera; the radiator really was covered in... something. You'll also note that there are quite a few fins missing. Given how torn up it was, I'm amazed it lasted as long as it did.
