i recently hit somebobys rear end and it broke the little nozzle from my radiator that my overflow hose clamps onto. The piece that broke off is plastic. Now theres a perfect little hole in the top of my radiator which water or antifreeze flows freely from when full or hot. Im wondering if anyone knows radiators and could tell me if this is a replaceable part or if I have to get a whole new radiator. It LOOKS like it could be removed and replaced, but I'm not sure. Any info would help. Thanks.

The plastic part can be fixed with "Fusor" plastic weld or maybe even JB weld. I fixed one of those on a Taurus and it's still holding after 2 years.
