I\'m thinking not... and overheating = bad times.

I think that\'s just a washer bottle.  The necks just sit in a foamy rubber collar in the top of the bottle, and the neck has a bolt to attach it to the body work - suprisingly often missing.

Don\'t worry the neck is only a push fit into the bottle so it will just push back in ,

Do you know why it overheated
