Default Replacement radiator options for Predator 670cc motor?

My the sheave on my Yamaha G14 broke and in the process damaged my radiator on the cart (see pics below).

I'm really struggling to try and find a replacement that I can buy anywhere...does anyone have any idea how/where I could get a replacement or an after-market that would work? Or am I SOL and do I need to buy an entire new engine??

Take that cooler to a radiator shop and have them repair it. They can braze that hole shut. It's old school, but it could save the day.

I'm handy and can do the basics on my cart, but if it's not a bolt-on, I'm a little lost. I don't have the cart now (at mechanic), but I guess it's just 2 radiator hoses going into it yes? Could I just buy something about the same size?

Or aren't there things like pressure, flow, etc to consider? I think it's an oil-radiator maybe?

This is a great idea if I can't get a replacement. Harbor Freight has a list of parts available online for the motor, and this isn't one, but the guys at the store said they think they might still be able to get it, but I have to wait until they're open on Monday.

Since it's such a popular engine, I was hoping one of the experts here may know of an aftermarket/performance one that works or something.

I see it is gone. Hope you are the one that got it. I have noticed before that there some predator parts on EBay when you need an OEM unit quick.

Oh that was me buying it lol. It says "New" but the picture shows it dented up, but it also says picture may not be accurate, so crossing my fingers it's not beat up.

I don't know why but I just wasn't typing the right searches in eBay for that to come up. Glad you found it.
