There bleeder valve is on the top of the inlet coolant piping at the top of the engine.
The bolts to drain the coolant from the engine are in the front and the back behind the exhaust headers. They are REALLY difficult to get to and a PITA to remove.
When I flushed my coolant I just forced the water through with a spray nozzle on a garden hose and let it drain out the radiator return hose. The radiator I just drained and filled with water, then drained and filled with water.
I also did the drain and fill with the engine running for a few minutes to warm up about 5 or 6 times. It takes a while, but it's far easier than removing those bolts to drain the engine block.
