How to Test a Defective Radiator

My 98 E300TD radiator recently failed (antifreeze got into the radiator cooler), and I'm in discussions with the manufacturer, who wants me to pull the radiator and send to them for verification that the radiator has split, enabling ths to happen.

I have to believe that there is a way prove (on the vehicle preferably) that the radiator is defective, and allowing the engine cooling side to leak into the radiator cooler. Any wisdom from you veterans?

Yes, it (antifreeze) did kill my trans.
