Impossible to do with the radiator in place, I used a drill and bit to make the dimple more identifiable......

Very true with anything other than an "angle drill."

Or you can twiddle the sharp twist drill in your fingers. This works on fiber gears. Even on aluminum gears - brass maybe not so much.

Holding the drill in a tap wrench might help get more pressure and save your fingertips.
