Radiator end caps

Hello,no the end cap or tank would be the part that is attached to the sides of the radiator core,where the top hose connects to.
They are held in place with the crimps and have an O ring that seals.
They are replaceable verses replacing the entire radiator,it’s a $125 repair verses a $400 radiator replacement.
They used to be commonly found but seem to be getting hard to find now.
I was on the highway,thermostat must of stuck and built up pressure and blew the neck where the hose connects off.
They are commonly replaced of other cars mostly because of cracking.
