Default Cracked Radiator Issue

Hi All,

Please see pictures below. Do you think I could JB Weld these hairline cracks and nipple looking parts that broke off of the radiator or do you think the pressure buildup or the heat expanding the plastic parts would make it leak anyway.

Would like to salvage it if at all possible..

Might be able to get by with fixing a few of them, but I would look for a replacement unit. I know they aren't cheap, but it might save a lot of headaches.

I found this guy and he seems to know what he is doing.
