Default Windshield washer swap

My original wiper motor is no good, bought a replacement from a corvette parts vender and the new washer hose outlets are pointed in a different direction from the original, everything on both appear the same, is it possible to swap the old washer outlets to the new?

Hi 73,
Carefully unscrew the 4 screws that hold the pipes in place from both pumps.
You'll be able to see if the o-rings on the new pump body line up with the old pipes.
Regards,
Alan
