Small Radiator Leak

Hey Guys/Gals,

I was installing a new TOP pipe and noticed some small drips of coolant from the bottom right of my radiator. Do you recommend I use one of those coolant stop leak kits (if safe with our vehicles) or just monitor the issue until it gets worse and swap out the radiator? The coolant levels barely fluctuate and I've never had a coolant light on the dash appear. Any advice is appreciated.

Just keep an eye on it, those stop leak can do more harm than good. Mine was weeping from the seams, I watched it a few months before replacing it.
