right windshield sprayer not spraying?

went to spray my windshield yesterday and to my surprise only the left squirter is working. no water at all is even dribbling out of the right one. recently had my hood repainted..is there a chance that it never was reconnected when they (I assume) removed the little sprayers in order to paint? I looked under the hood to see if I could reconnect it but there is that large black covering that covers all the stuff and I didn't feel like taking it apart

any ideas?

If the rubber line was not reattached you should be seeing fluid leaking from somewhere around the cover. Maybe lift the bonnet and give a look while a trusted assistant activates the washers. No leak? Maybe the nozzle is just a bit blocked. I have used a very fine wire to gently probe the nozzle in the past. Good luck!
