What type of transmission is it? On an M5R2 there is a bleeder valve on the internal slave cyl that sticks out of a port on the upper left side of the tranny bell housing. Just look for your hydraulic feeder line then go up about 4"

It's not a bleed screw in the conventional form like you'd see on brakes.

At least on the slave cylinders on fords I've seen. There is no place to put the bleed line. Simply a 11mm hex with a hole in the middle just above the hydralic line.
the F150's are the same...I think it may be the same slave cylinder.
Bleeding is quite easy. It works on simple gravity. open up the resevoir and the bleed screw at the same time. let her drip for a bit. (dont run out in the resevoir) and she's bled.
you can pump the peddle if you like and make one hell of a mess with no bleeder line.
