Guess I will be requiring a new heat exchanger as this one is probably not repairable. If anyone has a spare one laying around let me know. Due to the extreme cost of a new exchanger my project may have to be put on hold yet again.
I actually do have a heat exchanger for a marine engine laying around. I bought it to switch my Atomic 4 from raw water cooling but never used it. PM me if you're interested.
