Apart from the gap between hose and rad, the problem seems to be a rad with plastic end caps.

I dunno what they're made of tbh... but if it's not leaking then that's a good thing.
I've heard about plastic end cap rads and how you're supposed to replace them with an aluminium rad but I don't really know anymore than that tbh.

Nope, they still fit the crappy plastic rads even now - same rad that was fitted to S1s, Europas, all Exiges and Elises.
Seen plenty of them fail (including two go in the Alps).
First thing I did with my 59 plate Elise was to fit an ally rad.
