Should have a petcock on the radiator, it's for draining it out.

I got that twistable drain plug .
So these 2 tiny rubber hoses are also for drainage?
Odd to have both..

I wouldn't know since mine has been frankensteined. but that is what would make sense, one coming off the factory 1/4 turn drain petcock at the bottom of the tank that was looped up out of harms way.
