Windshield washer system

While trying to diagnose the reason the windshield washer system stopped working I broke the plastic nipple on the part at the engine firewall that passes the fluid from the pump hose to the hose to the wipers. I cannot find the name of this part or how to replace it. To further describe it; it appears the electrical connections meet within this part and it allows the fluid to pass through from the engine compartment to the windshield wiper compartment.
Do you
have the same problem?

Wiring diagram of wiper/washer system is below. Just follow whatever color the wires are that you speak of and match them to the colors in the diagram.

Image too small? Post e-mail address and I will send it via e-mail.

Would you please send the picture via email to jsharp@fidnet. Com.

I thought the washer motor was on the bottom/back of the fluid tank?
