Take off the reservoir & flush it out with hot water to get the oil out. If you drive it it can go through the cooling system and it may distort rubber seals etc. If it's a very minor amount it might not be an issue but flush it to be safe.

No it won't hurt it. If you only poured a little in the radiator I wouldn't give it another thought. If you poured a quart or more in there you probably need to get your radiator flushed before the temperature starts hitting any extremes.
