found the source for washer fluid leak - need expert help

so i took everything apart determined to figure out where the washer fluid leak was coming from...,

and it wasn't the fluid tank, or the pump grommets!! rather, the water is leaking from the connector for the headlight washers. i can see the water dripping from the connector under the headlights and directly in line with the device that pops out to spray the water.

anyone had this problem before? how do i repair this diy? i can't quite pull the connector out because there is VERY LITTLE room down there. do i have to remove the headlights?

i'd love to repair this DIY.. any help appreciated. this is for the driver's side headlight washer btw.

As a temporary stop to the leak you can pull the plug on the 'washer fluid to the headlights' pump if there is one on the tank... You won' have fluid at the headlights but you also wont have a leak.
