the tip on the rad cap that connects to the tube which flows the coolant into the overflow tank is busted off, i have some pictures so you know what im talking about

what do i need to replace so i don't keep leaking coolant all over the driveway?

Take it to a workshop and get them to oxy weld a new one on. Not much else you can do.

ya, or JBweld or something called like Liquid steel or something. The steel thing is like a putty and works better than JB weld. It is awesome stuff. But ya steel stuff and some gasket silicone and it should be good.
