The bleeder screw is right above the braided line and fitting that go to the tranny (hard to see but its there). I dont see this in the first and third pics of the trans but the last two have it, they are the two square notches where the bell housing mates to the tranny. When I did mine I used a deep socket put it on first then attached the ratchet. Some drill a hole in the floor board to gain easy acsess then plug it after. good luck. Sorry I dont have pics.

whoever put that "X here" is wrong... look at the picture.. look just below that.. see the 2 spaces they look like chunks take out of the trans.. 1 above the little ear. and one below the bolt.. .. the top one is where the slave bleeder will be, the bottom is where the braided line goes..

I found a 7/16....1/4drive socket on a 1/4 braker bar or a real samll 1/4 rachet works well for getting on it.
