If the aluminum has sprung a leak, then there are also other weak places in your radiator, even if you were to repair it (some radiator shops do solder them). In other words, it's just a matter of time before you will have to replace it anyway. My recommendation is to get a new one. If I recall correctly a few years ago, I bought one at www.eeuroparts.com and had good results with their radiator. If possible, try to get one without plastic, but I don't recall if that was possible on our replacement or not.

You have a choice of an aftermarket or original equipment radiator here (cheaper than other places):
