Default Need to bleed my clutch, can't find the bleed valve.

I'm either to aggrivated from working out in the rain or I'm just dumb. I just replaced my clutch master cylinder because it was leaking, and now I need to bleed the system. I've read up on the whole bleeding method, but I just can't seem to spot the bleed valve from under the car. It is on the tranny right? Covered by a square rubber piece? The only thing I see like that is on the front of the tranny toward the radiator, but it is hooked up to wires and doesn't want to come off. Can anyone clearly describe to me where it is or guide me to a picture of it?

Hah, now I don't feel as bad.

Can anyone pinpoint me to where it is? I got my car outside on jacks waiting.

Pop the hood. Look straight down. To the left of the exhaust manifold (your left, the car's right) is the clutch slave. It's bolted onto the front of the transmission, about halfway down the height of the block. There might be a little rubber nipple on it. You need to remove that to bleed the system.

the black boot is a dust cover and it keeps dust out of the bell housing, the bleeder valve is on the slave cylinder, just follow the metal fluid line to the slave and it yould be there
