Nope.  They attach a T fitting between the hose and the radiator for the
flushing, that's all.

I actually had the very same thing happen to me with my 82 Toyota several
years ago.  After a J-L radiator flush I noticed a in the end tank where
it met the radiator.

I went back and complained, and the manager walked me through the whole
procedure- it sure didn't seem like that could have cracked it to me-
maybe they just washed out all the crud that had previously kept the crack
sealed? (-:
