Default 1930/1931 Factory Radiator vs. Repop Identification

I recently acquired a decent used radiator for my late '30 pickup.

It has the dimpled front fins and the slightly angled cooling tubes, as used with the originals, but also as used on the Brassworks 'Show' model.

At sometime in the past the radiator appears to have fallen backwards which caused significant damage to the inlet tube. There is very little bending of the top tank itself.

If this is a factory-issued radiator it would certainly be worth trying to repair it. How can I tell if it's an original?
