Has anyone heard of putting an eggwithout its shell in a radiator to stop a leak?

As said above, the egg is for EMERGENCY and SHORT TERM use only.

It depends on where the leak is and what you mean by patch. If the leak in in the radiator matrix simply putting something over it will not work.

A radiator can be repaired by brazing or welding but if it has got to the stage where one part is corroded and leaking it is best to change the radiator.
Can a heater core be fixed or plugged without removal?
In many cases, yes. One of the many radiator "stop-leak" products, put into the radiator will normally do the job.Follow the manufacturer's instructions and add the stop-leak product, turn the heater on and set it to it's hottest of settings. Doing so will open the heater control valve, allow the maximum amount of radiator water to reach the heater coreand let the stop-leak product to do its work.The way most of these products work is, they cool and solidify when they reach the leak and are suddenly exposed to cooler air. Just don't forget to turn the heater on- if the control valve won't allow the heated radiator contents to get to the heater core, it won't do any good.Stop leak products sometimes do more harm than good. They can clog thermostats or reduce efficiency of radiator by reducing heat transfer ability. A quick fix is bypassing. Simply connect the two hoses together.
