White smoke and radiator problems
Alright I got everything put back on the car. Put oil back in it and started her up. Started noticing just a tiny bit of whitish smoke coming from the header area. Its not an exhaust leak im 99% sure. Letting the car just idle all of a sudden something pops and starts blowing air out. What it was is the top right corner of my radiator. The black piece that the cap connects to. I could feel the air blowing out of it. What caused this and what is it? How do I fix this? Thanks for any help.

The tiny bit of smoke I seen didnt look like it was coming from the cracks. Looked like it was coming from where it connects to the head but idk.

Im replacing the header and the radiator. After that how can I tell if I have a blown head gasket? Also, should I get a oem radiator or should I get all aluminum. And how do I find an all aluminum radiator for the 2000 si? I hear they're hard to find for this car. Thanks
