I have a 1998 GMC Sonoma, 140k on it. Anti-freeze is leaking from the metal tubing coming out of the left side of the radiator. How would I go about sealing this leak?

If metal tubes are leaking, it could mean there are corrosion internally and the best way is to get the tube replaced.

You can perform welding/soldering to stop the leak but if the condition of the tube is bad, it would start leaking again sooner or later.
