I think oem was alum plastic, and that is the cheapest repl at $130.
All metal copper/brass is more resistant to damage, but a little heavier.
Any new rad is a HUGE diff in cooling, vs old plugged one.
Most could not tell the performance diff between alum-plas vs all metal. film coefficients are more limiting than thermal conductivity. It is not significant, where new vs old is.
