We've a set of patio doors, with three hinges per door, in white. Each
hinge comprises the mechanical hinge part, and a steel clip-on cap,
painted white.

Here's an example of a "good" one:-

Now, the problem is that on one of them the clip-on cover has rusted
through, quite badly:-

Removing the cover, the hinge itself looks fine, apart from a bit of
staining from the cover, but I'm not worried about that:-

So, my question(s)...

Can anyone identify the hinge type / manufacturer, so that I can either
buy the whole hinge and replace the cap from the new one, or try to
source a replacement cap. Does anyone know of a supplier that is likely
to provide spares?

As always, any help from the knowledgables always welcome.

Have you tried contacting the original fitters for help? They might be able
to tell you who they buy their fitting from.

Or have a web search for "hinges with covers" or the like.

You could try DG Supplyline - I bought some multi-point locks for some
timber doors from them, and they were very helpful. Their main
business seems to be hardware/spare parts for plastic doors and
windows.
