Default need some radiator help!!!

The rad on my rs turbo has just sprung a leak

I have a series 1 rs, but i'm not sure whether I have a s1 or s2 rad as the car has a water cooled turbo?!

Can anyone tell me how to identify whether it is a series one rad or a series 2 item and does it matter which one I get to replace it?

Thanks for any help

the s2 rad has a water outlet to the turbo above the bottom hose outlet.
