Tried patching radiator small leak on seam no far so luck. Tried epoxy for high temp. a putty for high temp and an additive in the radiator. Guess difficult to mend a plastic radiator.

question, since it is a non-turbo and manual

I don't have the inter-cooler or transmission lines right?

Most of the writeups say to pull the radiator from the bottom. Is this necessary for a non-turbo manual.

Madness

    Correct, you just have a condenser, which stays in place, and a radiator. It will still be easier to pull it down. Get some ramps to make work much easier.

    Check to see if you have oil cooler lines on the right side. Then order a radiator which will fit your car. Nothing will patch the plastic.

    You might want new water lines and clamps.
