Looking for the headlamp washer hose.... RESOLVED
Its the small hose that connects to the 90 degree hose by the air filter to the bumper headlamp washer. Wifes passenger side is missing...dont know how or why, but its adios. Tried looking it up but shows a huge hose for $250ish. Below is the connector, Im missing the 1 foot portion that connects to the bumper mounted headlamp washer. Its a 2013 so its the washer style that pops out of the bumper not headlight. Part number or diagram would be helpful.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Thats the rub. Obviously there is a male connector that goes into the circled part but Im hoping there is a barb type connector on the bumper washer pump thing. If thats the case, yea.....run to NAPA get some hose and double barbed 90 connector and job done. Normally I would tumb my nose at this type of repair but A)its well hidden and B) its nothing related to safety C0 it will probably last longer that the Jag set up.

I’d go the path Cee Jay was suggesting and incorporate something like this

Might be....the longer #19.
If I go off the reservation, Ill pull the existing 90 degree for a dual 90 degree with barbs (easy). I have to work the next couple of days, when I get back home, ill take a peek inside to see if the washer nozzle is a barbed male. If the nozzle part is barbed, I might go the easy route. BTW, she had no idea that she had headlamp washers. I had to bring her outside and demonstrate....she was so excited. Thankfully she is a car girl.

Fixed. MFers at Jaguar tucked the 'missing' part of the hose behind the bumper support when they re-sprayed the bumper years ago. I picked up some 3/8 ID hose, various connectors and went to town. When I pulled it apart again, I could see the line going into the headlamp washer but nowhere for the mystery hose to go. I didnt put two and two together until I had the skid plate, both tires, liners off etc. Traced back the hose going into the headlamp washer and it was just shoved behind a support. Pulled it out of hiding and made friends with mystery part. Dual squirting action restored.
So yea, her car is basically done, running smooth with no issues. Ill fix her sticky buttons and give it an interior detail.
