I have a leak in one of the cores, What could I use to patch it? And will that radiator sealant in auto parts store work in I non pressurized radiator?

Solder will patch it, if you can get to the leaky area. Drain radiator, if it is in a tube, cut the fins back from the damaged area. Some cracks can be soldered without pinching the tube off.. others you have to pinch the tube, crimp and solder it sealed. Use a small brass or SS wire brush to clean the areas.. fine emory paper is good too.. use a nice paste or thick liquid flux, prexerably a metl laden one specifically for radiator work.. flux the heck out of it.. heat it with a plumbers torch and hit it with some good quality solder.. just like sweating a pipe... the metal should wet / tin up nicely..

B has no circulating pump.. I imagine it would be very wishfull thinking to get a liquid sealant to seal a cooling system leak without real water circulation, vs thermo-syphon...
