Thanks Alan
It's a slow process but I'm learning about the car more everyday, what I'm actually looking for is not the original cap that covers the washer but one you would use if the washer pump is removed, mine does not have a pump and all I'm interested in is covering the opening where pump normally goes. Is such a cover actually built? Thanks, Tony.

Alan's part number is correct for a 1968-1974 but without the pump there wouldn't be anything to mount it to. The pump cover mounted to the cover with a stud that pierced the cover. (visible in the picture below).
The flat style show above for the 1975 and new motor won't work either. The motor was different and so was the motor opening the cover hides.

New Cover
Installed the 75-82 flat cover, it has three attachment points, 5, 7, 11 oclock, 7 and 11 oclock attach with screws like the ones used on the wiper grill, for the 5 oclock point I used the bolt that attaches the ground metal strap, hole lined up perfect. Driver side of cover has an opening for electrical connection (I suppose), I covered with a foam strip, you can barely see it in picture.
Thanks to all that replied, Tony.
Thought about Wilcox comment about cover not fitting, I bought car with new wiper motor mounted, it might not be the correct one for a 1969, it's still not functioning, have to work on that next.
