You could install a thermostatic radiator valve. That would help.0

Is it steam or hot water?
Show us closer pictures showing both ends.
Picture of boiler from far back also.0 -
This appears to have 2 tappings at the bottom of the end section. Looking close at the valve, it appears that it goes into the tapping closest to the wall and the tapping furthest from the wall goes to the elbow that is further past the valve. When you look that close to it, the picture is blurry so it is hard to be sure.

After you make that expensive repair and you still have the same problem, What will you check next?

If the black valve doesn't work you have what some people on this site call a double hung thermostat just above the radiator...Never mind wasting all that precious fosil fuel0

We need better pictures of the radiator and the pipes. The return could go to the same end or across the back to the other end or it could even be various steam setups.0
