Progress report.

It worked absolutely fine in all conditions, no leaks - all good.

Actually works even better with the air con turned on in hot weather, as the air con fan stays on and even when 35+ outside that fan on its own, seems to keep below the temp required for the thermo-controled fan to cut in.

^That's pretty good! I noticed the same with the aircon when I changed the radiator in the Foz.

Still thinking about the fan cut-off/always on mod for the radiator fan...

I wasn't the original owner, and I have no idea if this was the original radiator in the auto wagon.. The one in the brumby isn't as the car is a manual, and the radiator is for an auto.
