Metal radiator

Sunday night the radiator neck blew off my wife's 87 5KTQ.  A quick search of
the archives found the attached thread.
I haven't called Blau yet
I called discount radiators and after 2 phone transfers, I talked to someone
who sounded uniformed and said they only have plastic ones - no metal ($124
sounded too good to be true)
I called GDI (GODAN) directly where John in "applications" gave me a part #
of 433 199.  I was then transferred to the order dept. where they told me the
number was too new and there was no availability - transferred back to John
and had to leave a message.  No return call yet.

Does anyone have a line on an informed source for metal radiators?
TIA, Jan Lahtonen
