There appears to be something odd about the flex pourer shown in your image: these were made with a screw cap end, to engage the screw spout of the can, but the one in your image appears to have a rubber end? Or am I not seeing it properly?

Yes Mike you are on the money it is a rubber friction fit connection. Purchased the combination some time back on ebay and it was not until I received the item that I twigged the size was different. I have four and will eventually add the missing two. Images attached are the D^D cans, a Canadian can which I feel is appropriate and the last one is the drivers side rack for same. Regards..Rod
