Trying to wrap my head around the PET illustrations for the windshield washer pump.. There is an illustration for an electric pump which is what I'll be using, however it seems to only call for "T" pieces - but I believe that's being shown with the early chrome nozzles.

Did maybe early nozzles incorporate a check valve, but the later black one didn't?

The illustration for the later black nozzles lists a "T" shaped "valve with valve" (probably a separate check valve, no?).

Anyone know what's what here?

When I bought the car 8 years ago, ( ‘75 2.0) the seller installed an electric pump. It works just fine ( I only use it if I have to go to the MOT every 2years) but in between the nozzles leak water regularly. If I don’t wipe it off instantly , it creates stains that are very difficult to remove. And I have no idea what is causing this.
