It's quite Likely to be the rad , it is very common for them to crack around the top
Have a close look and you will more than likely find a hairline crack that's opening up when water temp & pressure increases.
And in response to your initial reply which you edited , yes £60 max , brand new , because a mate had the same problem just two week ago , iirc he payed less than £60 including postage
