2.2 clutch bleed nipple location?

The clutch fluid on my 2.2 needs changing.

I've had a quick look but I'm not sure where the slave bleed nipple is.

Also, what type of fluid should be used?

I’ve just done this myself, on first inspection I thought ‘oh no, another nightmare job working on an invisible component buried under pipes and round a corner..’

.. it’s actually OK, best way I can describe it- lay down on the passenger side, just behind the mudflap with your legs pointing towards the drivers side. Shuffle under so you can look up between the tub and the gearbox.
You can see the hard pipe coming up (which is from the master in the engine bay) which goes to part 1 shown in the diagram.

There is a rubber cap on the nipple that pulls off and you should be able to open the bleed screw by hand, it turns between 1/4 and 1/2 a turn.

If you can’t turn it by hand you can use a 13mm stubby spanner on the two flats.
