You need to find out exactly where the water's coming from mate, bit more info will go a long way

Because you've got a leak.
Did you just have water in it, and it froze?
You'll need to work out what is leaking, a hose, or the engine.

more than likely the rad itself corroded in one of its corners or its been punctured? check your pipes for splits close to where the metal clips are aswell
