Fuel Injector problem

At the tip of the injector shown you can see an orangey-red "hat"
one of these hats is broken on another injector and i was wondering if anyone has any ideas of what to do, where to get a new one and if i can still use it without the hat

forgot to include the obvious of checking with ford or an autoparts store, no luck with either one.
 
Goto a auto parts store and get a Injector Rebuild kit. It should come with all the o-rings, The (hats), and i think screens.
 
It also keeps the oring and spacer from sliding off. Here is a part# I got ovv of here somewhere.

Pintle cap

Niehoff or Borg Warner fuel injector seal kit:: 274081
about $2 each

I am in the process of various upgrades and have my old injectors somewhere in a box. You can have them for the price of shipping if anyone can answer the next question....to my satisfaction. If the "Hats" (Pintel Protection Caps) are necessary to prevent carbon buildup why are they NOT present on the set of 38 lb'ers I have just purchased?
