It looks like it's my turn. I was preparing the coach for our annual trek south for the winter and discovered I have a coolant leak, from what I can see from underneath it is coming from the top forward corner. Under pressure it's a drip per second. This is the original aluminum radiator.
I have a referral in Junction City but I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a shop here in Portland OR to save us the 4 hours of driving.

Are you sure it isn't a hose or fitting? CAT or Cummins?

D & D Classic Auto in Junction City (a referral from Kevin Waite) confirmed it is a split in the seam at the top of the radiator. Hopefully we will have a non-aluminum replacement early next week.
