i was thinking pressure but surely if the pressure was the main cause wouldn't a hose have blown first, thinking its made from a poor grade of ali.
brought it as it was cheaper than another one from subaru dealer

That looks like it's been pressurized from a head gasket failure.

The chap on 22b.com was a Lateral Rad/FMIC kit that bent & his was due to head gasket going.
