Hi guys, so I found a small leak in my rad and I was just curious if there is a quick fix or if I just have to replace it, if so does anyone know if the rad for a 3rd gen 3sgte is interchangeable with other models, hope someone can help, thanks

Whenever there's a leak in a radiator. You should just change it. dont add any of those quick fix chemicals. Reason is, they're built to clog that crack, which means it'll clog in your engine too since the coolant circulates through the engine and hoses.
