Unhappy Do you recognize what made the hole in the radiator?

Do you recognize what made the hole in the radiator? That piece of metal sicking out of the center of the fan.

While driving, I hear nothing wrong, and the dashboard light illuminates: “Hey, your water is low!”

I later pull over and see a puddle under the car. I had no steam.

There seems to be a hole in radiator, on the engine side (with the picture, it seems to be the shinny mark in the radiator). What could that metal piece be? It has a MB logo on it, with some numbers.

What else could be broken, that I should fix while replacing the radiator? The thermostat will be replaced, just for good measure.

Thanks for the help.

The numbers I can see seem to be …
