Replacement standard brass radiator. Alloy is unsuited to a 4wd.

Would a aftermarket ebay copper & brass be okay? Why is alloy not suitable for 4wd?

Yes, the eBay brass radiators are fine.
Aluminium radiators are brittle and are easily damaged, can’t be field repaired and can’t have the tanks removed for rodding out. They’re for road cars.

I am also looking for a replacement radiator. It is for a 2015 Jimny M13A manual. Bearing in mind what Steve recommended I couldn't find a copper/brass one on Ebay. Does anybody know where I can get one? Preferably in Melbourne.

You won’t find a brass/copper direct fit radiator for a jimny unfortunately, they’re all plastic tank/alloy.

If you are in Victoria I had mine cleaned and repaired by Warragul Radiator Repairs, was under $100.
