If you are doing some old school tricks then use a raw egg. Black pepper is to fine to use but the bad thing about the egg is after it stops leaking then you got an egg in your block,head,hoses,and then the radiator then you might have to do a flush on the coolant system so its not worth it

I've heard on an older car you can put black pepper in to stop a leak, but on a Honda the radiator would just get stopped up BC of the size difference
