First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... Sheen,
The manual is showing the plastic cover with the inlet and outlet tubes that houses the diaphragm (in the drawing) still attached to the left side of the "pump package" (#5 -- I'm talking about the lower exploded view). In the drawing the tubes are pointing away, so it is hard to tell, but that's where it is on the actual washer. The bellows that Jim refers to I think is the diaphragm you are talking about, too. It is shown without the plastic cover (and its rubber O rings and tubes) and as attached to the washer pump housing (without the large black plastic housing). It isn't a particularly helpful drawing. But getting one from a parts store and using it for the internal parts (or getting one from a junk yard) is what I did.

I definitely can't see it without a clearer version of the manual and possibly a magnifying glass (me eyes aren't so good).
