Default Cooling problem 2007 wrx

Wondering if you could help. My 2007 subaru wrx started to overheat. I put water in the radiator and it poured out. So I have stripped down the front end and found holes in the radiator but also holes in the matrix before the radiator ( think someone has stuck a stick down there 3 times as you can see damage to the front grille also). I know i need to fix or replace the radiator but the matrix in front of that what is it and can it be fixed????? ( is it air con or oil cooler ) Thanks if you can help

It will probably be air con, unless you have fitted an oil cooler..

Cheers for that. Did think it was but just thought would ask. Does anyone know if you can fix the air con matrix with epoxy resin as you can with the radiator....

Just been looking about. Found out but sure you all know the su334 radiator is exactly the same as the saab 9-2 radiator. Found a radiator on internet at Advanced Radiators in Newcastle for £92. So will pick one up from there next week as at that price it not worth having it fixed.
