Not knowing casting #s, etc, disconnect the upper radiator hose at the
radiator and observe which direction the water is flowing. Towards the
radiator, OK. Out of the radiator, not so good, but you've found the
culprit. Don't forget, lowere the coolant level below the opening in the
radiator before starting the test, or you may get fooled.
