Default Radiator questions

Ok, my '94 ls is having the usual leaky radiator problem. The first question, is there a way to tell which type/brand of radiator is in my car just by looking at the way it is made? I can't find any type of label or stamped name on the current one(which may be a aftermarket replacement already). Second question, is it safe to use the radiator stop leak stuff until I can save up for an aluminum rad? Just want to make sure it won't damage anything before I try it. TIA for any help.

My experience with the stop leak stuff has not been very good. I usually end up with a worse leak than what I was trying to seal to begin with. Also, I believe all 94 LS Integras were Denso type radiators. Is it an auto or a manual?

Pretty sure that doesn't matter cause the tranny lines are already there, just capped.

It's a manual. Did all the LS's come with the denso?
