Air Conditioning refrigerant leak

I have a 2005 Scion xB w/auto transmission, 30,000 miles, 1.4 ltr, when I refilled the air conditioner system due to it being empty, the refrigerant was spraying out of the lower part of the radiator. Does cooling line to the condenser usually run through the radiator on cars? Also, is there a way to have a repair shop fix the hole. It isn't leaking at a fitting, it appears to be a pin size hole.

Whether it is the condensor or the high-side line it will have to be replaced. The high-side can get up to 250 psi on a hot day, repairs usually dont hold
