RADIATOR... cRaCk!.. HELP!?

After enjoying driving my SVX.. after engine renewal 11 month process.. NOW I noticed coolant temp up/down some 1/4" sporadically.. Checked under hood when I got home.. Found 4" lateral crack in front of radiator cap to inlet hose nub!

Repaired with repair kit last nite.. but leaking again this am .. going to work. WHAT are my options? I assume can't be succesfully repaired.. How about Al radiator ($$$?) .. or what? New OEM?

Please HELP!

Thanks, Jim
