The plug on the left is definitely not the right one, its threads are too long. I think that type is used in a slant six or small-block. The plugs are supposed to be resistor plugs so I would say the one on the right is correct. I don't think the difference between the 12 and 13 is very...
I feel your pain. My solution was to get the original stainless steel wiper blades from an old junked car then find NOS refills. It took a lot of time and effort. By the way, I think the original MoPar wiper blades were made by Anco not Trico (CMIIW) so maybe you would have better luck...

I'm looking for someone to re-chrome bumpers and possibly do other metal trim work. I was hoping to find a good place within driving distance. I've found these two places:
