Windsheild wipers

I have an 83 F250, and when i got it there were no hoses whatsoever coming from the windsheild wiper pump. I don't even think there are nozzles in the cowl. I am trying to figure out if the peice on the upper firewall kinda centered but off to the pass side is a hookup for the hoses from the wiper pump, or somethin else. http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b394/DeadJ/Truckshoseblock.jpg
Thanks

No, that is for vacuum hoses. The nozzle (or hole for the nozzle) for the windshield washer fluid should in between that and the wiper motor, fairly close to the motor itself. I just took a couple of pics and posted them in my gallery for you.

If the water nozzel isn't there, there should be a + type hole in your cowl for it to plug into. It's in the center of the cowl closest to the hood, but shifted toward the driver side slightly.

The hose plugs into the back of it. If you don't have one, you can get one out of a wrecker, for cheap. You can pry the "squirter" off with a screwdriver, to feed the hose through the cowl and plug it in that way, but be careful, if it is old and rotten, the plastic "keepers" could break off.
