Arthur,
small rad leaks work just this way: they go wet when it's cold and they go dry on a hot rad (coolant quickly vaporizes right when flowing out of the crack). Moreover, it can be fine on a cold engine (when there's no extra pressure in the coolant system) and can go leaking on a hot engine (when there's 1 bar extra under the cap).
Cheap man troubleshooting: check the rad for coolant stains. Die Ordnung troubleshooting: remove the rad and the pressure test using air pump and big bath full of water.
