Default Radiator problems

My friends radiator has gotten a small leak and we live in a small town that the auto shops like to jack the prices up at they want 250 for one here i found them on the internet for like 100 dollars less so my question is how do you tell if it has a the engine oil cooling system (EOC) or not
Thanks in advance for any help. Nick

If it has a factory oil cooler there should be 4 hard lines going to the side tank. A feed and return line for the auto trans and a feed and return line for the engine oil cooler. Follow the lines and see where they go to. Your vin# should tell you and can be checked with your local dealer. There are also build codes on a large decal inside the glove box door, if it has'nt been removed. Not too hard to figure out.

I buy a lot of replacement parts from LMC and have always gotten good service and ok prices.
