Heater bypass hose out of the water pump 200 1991

fwiw---an example of repairs. Keep in mind that this is basically a Hot Water pipe.

When radiators were all Metal, the top and bottom Brass sections were soldered to the core. You could replace a leaking or clogged core by melting the solder and pulling the rad apart....New core new solder job.

A "lost art", a lost fix-it not replace it----Void Due to Plastic Rads.

Solder---https://www.nuclead.com/PDFs/2012/08/solder_420x280.jpg

So any holes in that metal heater pipe can be sealed with same. You've just got to get the metal around the hole or break clean---as in 'down to the metal'.

This is propane torch temps --- not welding.
