Ancient history now I suppose (what with your karma and all...) but the earliest 6-cyl cars__mine is a BN6L/942__used this style of pump with a rubber bellows. To the best of my knowledge, it has not been reproduced, nor is the rubber bellows an available repair part.
The condition of the once functioning bellows when carefully disassembled.
I updated the pump to become a switch, while keeping its original appearance intact.
Sharing some of the features of the Longbridge built cars (this was the beginning of Big Healey production at Abingdon) I still have a centrally mounted double-jet squirter. Unfortunately, while waiting for me to get around to refitting the glass reservoir (STILL packed in a box for our less than recent move to Florida) and recovering/fitting the package tray, the cheap autoparts store pump has ceased to work, but I'll get around to finishing the whole system someday...
There're several more pictures detailing the process here: https://spcarsplus.com/gallery3/index.php/Healey-at-home/Longbridge-Squirter
