D) pure interest what is the domestic radiator type structure

That 'radiator' type structure is one of the 2 Horizontal Stab Bay access doors.
The interesting thing is that its designed to be a blowout panel in the event of Rear Pressure Bulkhead blowout. This door is still firmly in the closed position. This indicates that there has not been a significant dump of cabin pressure into the H/S Bay.
