Both arms pointing to passenger side is correct. The original linkage is very simple and both arms move in the same way when the wiper gearboxes are engaged. Has a previous owner fitted another system? If you remove one of the inspection covers on the bulkhead, using a mirror, you should be able to ...

Re: New Member in Norfolk
Welcome to the group. The car was used in ACG&S but the producer wanted proof of its reliability and so gave instructions that it should drive from Leeds to London on the M1 and back again.

Re: Interior Improvements
Hi this was Terry's "Siegfried Farnon " car.
The Dashboard lettering is white paint. Try using a round tipped fine hypodermic needle to fill the letters.
The headlining is union cloth. You might try wool felting-see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vBODmr_TZE
hope this helps

Re: leaf springs-part number
There is a supplement for the 12 tourer at the end of the 1939-47 parts list. Due to the lighter weight of the 12 tourer, part numbers 07967 and 07968 that are actually 10hp springs, were used.
