looking at the fins isn't going to matter whether there's coolant in the radiator or not since they're outside the tubes. A quick look inside might well show clear coolant and smooth tubes, negating the need to drain the thing. It might not. The salient point is, neither I nor you nor Bob knows whether this is a worthwhile action or not until it's tried. Given the ease and simplicity, it ought to be worth a try, which would tell us quickly a usable technique or not.
