When I did a search a bunch of restoration parts came up. Maybe you could try to find a close fit from a junkyard and modify it to fit where you need it to. Probably not the answer you were hoping for.

Default You wouldn't still happen to have it would you? If so could I get some rough measurements?

Tanks size and neck height.

Default autospeed's is from a volvo, it has a trapezoid (top view) shape of 7.25x5, height of the reservoir

is 5", then it has a long tube about 6" for the (filling) cap (designed to be mounted under other engine bay parts) - i cut that tube down to the reservoir height along with the level indicator). i also added a larger opening for ice cubes.
also my99 and below has 2 tanks, what i did was swap the terminals to these pumps to free up the higher(filler) tank (i dont use the headlight washer anyway)
