When my V8 spit steam out the vents a few months ago, I feared it
was the heater core, but it turned out to be the hot water valve.
So you may get lucky.

The fix was is easy -- just write a check.

On the 200 TQA a year or so ago, it was the heater core. That was
fixed with a short piece of heater hose to bypass the heater core.
