OEM radiators crack on the top all the time. You're going to have to replace the radiator. You can get one for about $100 from http://www.radiatorbarn.com. If you need a temp fix, try putting some epoxy over the crack, but definitely get a new radiator.

I'm looking at getting an 94 integra today w/ a B18b motor. After driving it for about 15-20 min, I popped the hood and there was small amount of sweet smelling steam coming from the radiator. I then rubbed my finger along the top and found a small amount of coolant on the top of the radiator by the hand latch. It was almost like it was sweating. The car had been stored in the winter and not driven much lately. Does anyone know what the problem could be or if they have had the problem before? How hard is it to fix?
