Hi Big Mikey welcome to Diesel Bombers. I think what your seeing is a leak from the oil cooler portion of the radiator? Here is some info on the cooler lines and the radiator itself.
Does the plug look like it has a snap ring in it? or is just a solid brass plug?
here some info.

its not the oil connection . Its a small brass plug sticking out about 3/8 and a open hole.Its the same side as the oil cooler connection and really close to the connection
