1979 Toyota Pickup Radiator Replacement Specs/Help/Part number

Hi All,
I picked up a beautifully preserved 1979 Pickup from an estate sale last week. I'd like to replace the radiator. I've searched the forum with mixed advice and wondered if anyone has first hand knowledge and advice for me.
The NipponDenso number on top of the radiator doesn't seem to coincide with OEM Parts numbers- any help there? (see photo)
I'm looking at the following as options:

number on top of Radiator

Thanks Man!
Its a very very clean little machine. That’s original paint!

I’m trying to decide if I want to paint the wheels and bumpers. I like the look of
black over white.

I got a Spectra Premium radiator for my '78 from Rock Auto. Build quality is pretty good and I've been running it over 3 years now with no issues.
