Radiator woes

["Jerry FIELDS" <Jerry.Fields@ccmail.adp.wisc.edu>]

     Part of the top output tube, a ring about 3/4 inch wide, broke off 
     inside my hose. Looks like the previous owner over-tightened the 
     clamp. I moved the clamp as close the radiator housing as possible, 
     and it appears to be working as a temporaty fix.
     
     Do I need to take the radiator into a shop and have a new outlet tank 
     installed, change radiators, or is there a home fix? Any type of epoxy 
     or plastic weld that will work? The hose barb, and a little more, is 
     the part that broke off, and I am concerned that under long trip 
     conditions, the hose may slide off the remaining part of the outlet.
