Default Clutch bleeder fitting?

I've been asking a lot of questions about clutch bleeding and the different methods ect. I am going to actualy bleed it but after looking at all the pictures I can find of the master cyl and the slave cyl. what part is the bleeder actualy on, slave or mcl. or both?
I also would like to install the bleeder extension so does it just fasten onto the existing bleeder fitting? Also when doing the bleeding at the fitting is fluid also being forced through the slave cyl. since that is the part I'm trying to preserve the most.
