Could be one of them and with no asterisks in the Part Numbers they are generic Ford parts and could be available from vintage Ford parts suppliers. My guess is the silencer based on the following:

*C19SR 17595- Bolt- special- distributor vacuum tube to manifold. All India with low cab or half cab.
Note: 17595 is the same base part number as the silencer above.

*C01UC 17597- Bolt- distributor vacuum tube assembly to intake manifold. All India with low cab or half cab.

As the vacuum breaker (silencer?) serves both the vacuum brake and wipers it could also be the above two possibilities. If so, The asterisk means it is unique to CMP vehicles and I doubt any vintage Ford parts supplier would have them.

Hope this helps. Please let us all know if you find a modern supplier.

Cheers,
Thanks this helps a bunch. With all the manuals I have none of them mentioned the silencer let alone a part number for it even though the diagrams have it. At first I thought it was some sort of vacuum check valve but the more I search the more it sounds like its just a chamber.
