Slave cylinder bleed screw?

I'm almost 100% sure I have air in my clutch hydraulic system, it works fine until the car heats up to operating temperature and then the clutch begins to not fully release (release clutch plate, fully depress pedal) so it makes sense that air is in the system, but I can't seem to find a bleed screw on the slave cylinder, does anyone know where it is?


Any help is greatly appreciated.

Its on the top of the slave cyl. right next to the hydro. line. it doesnt look like a brake blead screw so you may have missed it, it uses an allen key also.
