Will a radiator for an automatic transmission work on a vehicle with manual transmission?

Generally no because the one for the automatic has a trans cooler built into it. I would have to disagree as long as everything is the same the radiator will work. And you do not have to plug up the transmission fittings on the radiator because it is just an in and an out. If you hook nothing to it, nothing will come out the other side.

What would cause automatic transmission fluid to leak into cooling system?

Automatic transmission fluid is often circulated through a small section of a car's radiator to keep it cool. Getting coolant mixed with your ATF would mean there is a problem with your radiator. Remove the radiator from the car and get it into a radiator shop for repair. Don't drive the car because you'll risk permanently damaging your transmission. A radiator repair should be fairly inexpensive, even if you have to have parts de-soldered from the core and replaced. Even a new replacement radiator is relatively inexpensive if you R&R it yourself. Have fun.

How would tranny oil get into your radiator?

Many automatic transmissions use a cooler inside the vehicles radiator to help maintain the transmissions temperature. The transmission pumps ATF thru the cooler. If a leak occurs in the trans cooler the ATF is pumped into the radiators coolant. The engine coolant can also mix with the trans ATF and enter the transmission the same way in which case would be fatal for the transmission.
