One pump is for standard washer and the other is for the intensive washer.
Both are mounted on the reservoir casting.  The "regular" washer line runs
along the right side of the engine compartment and the intensive on the
left.  There are check valves in each line near the firewall, these valves
allow each pump to flow to the same set of nozzles on the hood.

What?  The driver's side washer stopped working on my V8.
I assumed a clogged jet or bad hose on that side. Now I
learn there are *2* windshield washer pumps? Oy.

The reservoir (starboard side, if there are 2) is buried
under some relays for the Euro lights, so I can hardly
get the cap off, let alone fill it. The pump?  Oy Vey!
