Try a product called WaterWeld. It's made by the same company that makes JB Weld. It should temporarily hold the radiator together until you save up enough for a proper fix.
A radiator shop should be able to fix it fairly easily.

Try Bars Leak.

- The last time I tried the powder, I lost my head gasket.
  The beads seem to do the trick though.

That's weird, a crack? A radiator shop might be able to solder it.
