I was expecting the radiator for sure I found that is has a crack in the top passenger side I’ll see if that fixes it for sure and no not really it’s very cold in Ohio so it just blends with the steam

You have a blown head gasket. Get them replaced before you damage the block or heads or both. If you’ve had it overheat more than 2 times I would highly suggest having your heads machined when you replace the head gaskets. You’re on borrowed time before you blow up the motor and need a new motor
