Welcome to FOG burge.

A replacement wiper motor from a scrap yard should solve the one issue and an oil and filter change, with a flushing agent, should help with the other.

Blow, dont suck !

No seriously, for the breathers, I find it easier to fetch them off and buy new from a motor factors, just buy a length at that bore, its normally only a couple of quid.
