The rear washer jet is the same as a metro one.
I have not seen one for sale for while though.

With regard to the oil cooler duct, i have not seen one come available and i have been looking for years.
I did try making one out of aluminium but it was all guess work and didn't fit very well so gave up.
I have never noticed the oil temp getting high enough to need extra air flow over it.

If someone has photo's of one taken off the car, it would be nice if you could PM some photo's to us 3 and i'm sure something could be fabricated from them.

A MK4 (& maybe MK5) ford fiesta rear washer is similar and might make do if you can't locate a metro one

Excellent thanks.
The pics are great. I should be able to make one from that.
I see it is riveted to the grill.
I don't suppose you have a pic from the front of the grill you could post.
This will help to show how far it is fitted from the RH grill edge as well as what its riveted too.
I didn't realise it was fixed to the grill as this will make i easier to make and fit.

I might order a couple of washer jets as long term spares before they are gone forever. Thanks for the link
