5k radiator

[trharlan@one.net]

Folks,

You know how some radiators have a plastic/fiberglass flange at the
upper hose? 

Mine broke today.

Only about an inch of it broke off, but a new hose will not stay
attached under high pressure/high speeds. Don't ask me how I know.

So, has anyone ever heard of repairing this flange? If not ('86 2wd N/A
engine), where should I start calling first? And how long does the job
usually take for an average amateur wrench without a garage?
