Slave Cylinder Mystery

I have a 96 F150 XL 4.9 Inline 6 with 4 sp tranny My problem is a slow leak in the slave cyl. I have to add fluid from time to time and last week the resovoir ran dry and system needs bleeding.However, i can't find the bleed nipple! Looked underneath where the rubber inspection plate is on the bell housing and don.t see it. Please help me out guys.I can't afford to get it repaired at this point in time.Thanks for your anticipated help in this matter.

It's in the slot just above where the fluid line goes into the bellhousing. Read this caption:
