One thing I noticed upon closer examination is that there appear to be slight 
deposits at the mouth of the hose that goes to the overflow tank.  I'll have to 
clean off the area (any suggestions on what to use?) and have another look at 
it.

Hey all,

I'm about 99% sure I've got a pinhole leak at the neck below the radiator cap 
(which I've recently replaced as a preventative measure). I've noticed a small 
mineral deposit right below the small rubber hose on the neck below the 
radiator cap. The leak is slight (I'm nowhere near the "Low" mark, but it's 
obvious that I'm losing coolant, but only enough to evaporate quickly).

Any ideas? Can I fix it? I'd rather not replace the radiator.
 

Yes.  JBWeld in the roll, not the separate tubes.  It worked on my FM Davis 
radiator for years before the bottom seal failed.  When you eventually go for a 
new radiator, think Koyo.
