Welcome to TM, 4RNY any official Morgan dealer will be able to order replacement hubcaps, and Peter is the chap for decent wiper blades
Just a general observation but considering the price of CX's those zinc plated plain steel wheel nuts are a bit naff

Ref the wheel cap centres, if they are like our Plus Six I think they may be a clear coat protected aluminium outer pressing glued or bonded onto a plastic backing. Mine are just starting to corrode at their outside edges. If you contact a Morgan main dealer with a photo of the centre cap I am sure they are available fairly quickly or even maybe stocked by the dealer. I think from memory they have to be gently pressed into place from the inside of the wheel, at least on our Speedster wheels they do.
Ref the wheel nuts ( bolts ), we have the same issue on our Plus Six, also the more times the wheel is taken on and off with a socket and power driver wrench the more the coating comes off the steel bolts on their hex sides. I will be ordering some more in the summer, as so far I have not located an alternative replacement. To help protect the coating on the bolts hex sides, undo and tighten the wheel bolts by hand and not use a power driver wrench.

Good luck on a servicing garage not using a power wrench on wheel nuts, hence the coating damage
Hopefully one of the Mog accessory providers will develop some stainless steel replacements, as they will need speccing correctly for thread (obviously) and the specific seating angle on the alloys
