Oil radiators

Finally got back on the track this week after repairs following my Snetterton crunch. I took it to Mallory for a shake-down, everything went pretty well.

Except...running at high revs for first time, the oil radiator began to spray oil as a v.fine mist, which over a session coated the engine bay. There's no obvious damage, but I haven't inspected it fully yet. My question is, assuming I've picked up a pinhole split somewhere in the rad, would such a thing be repairable, or is it off to Radical again for another quick £160?

Firstly, you need to run it up and identify whether it is the cooler, the pipe connectors or the pipework that is damaged.

If it is the oil cooler take it to someone like Alan Docking, look in Motoring News.
