Default Radiators Nissens, OEM, Atlantic British, or Amazon, etc?

Well, going thru coolant leaks now and new I had a leaking waterpump. No problem. But after closer inspection, I found the Left bottom corner (looking at the engine) leaking from the radiator.

Well, OEM, Nissens, the one from Atlantic British (Not sure what it is) or any other recommendations? Vary uncomfortable with a Amazon ones.

Though, Amazon has a all aluminum one

just not sure if really is plug and play fit or any good for that matter.

Nissens has gone down in quality but I still think besides OEM it would be the only brand I would go with. In fact I did when I replaced mine.

I used a Nissens, and it has been trouble-free the past 11k miles. Got mine from RockAuto with an online coupon.

Not sure, but if that is the case, they want a TON of money for that green oval

Looks like Nissen is a Denmark company with manufacturing in Czech Republic and Slovakia but recently in China as well.

To Dakota's comment, maybe why quality has since gone down. Not slamming Chinese production (ok, maybe a little bit)

Does anyone have the Nissen's part number. I have found multiple with different prices. Amazon shows a 64320A. partsgeek shows (2) W0133-1901919 and 18419-08041756, finally ebay has one with the part number SX-71Y3
