I think I'd be careful with that JB-welded fix....its likely not going to last.
I have yet to see a radiator neck fail in my own experiences....my car had the original radiator up until about 2-3 years ago, and it never failed.....it ended up leaking from the tanks/seam. I bought a new Behr unit....and its been great.
It lowered my hot-day temps significantly too.....now it never gets over 85C or so.....it used to climb to 95-100 on hot days idling. I switched to the plastic fan too....much more air flow.
