The Subaru and ESO image shows a plethora of small galaxies in the background as well as material (Gas, Stars?) surrounding it but no hint of a jet.
Hope this is of some help.

Nice of you to comment on an image of mine Allan... after a long break, much appreciated

Interesting indeed...I 100% see a strong similarity in the deep high contrast comparison I have displayed ...perhaps they are indeed deeper due to greater stretching? In my mind it is impossible for the UK Schmidt Image to be so similar to mine if those features aren't real..Hmmm?
