Charlie,

You managed to provide most of the answers yourself...not much more to add.

I agree with your top three...

Radiator - If you're having problems get a modern three or four core 
radiator installed.   They can put your top and bottom on the core and it's 
virtually unnoticeable unless you know what to look for.

Radiator slats - Any paint shop can match paint so not having much of the 
correct color is not an excuse not to open up your radiator slats to allow 
for better air flow.  Of all the fixes I've heard through the years this is 
the most common.

Holes behind the core plugs.  Here's a link to an article I wrote for the 
T-ABC group:  http://mg-tabc.org/techn-up/The%20Hidden%20Water%20Passage.htm

And here's a link to the water flow in an XPAG engine:
