Perhaps I need to try again but I need something the exact right size to go in there and force everything back to round.

I agree with Spike - something is up with that radiator orientation. Maybe I'm wrong but... maybe a 3FE spec replacement? All copper is pretty good.
Anyway EricE - post a pic of what you are describing. How big is the "indent"? - you can easily solder on copper you could clean it heat it up and "rub" some solder on it to possibly fill in the indent - hard to tell without seeing it.
