Default Bleed screw at the clutch slave cylinder?

Does anyone know if there is a bleed screw under the car at the clutch slave cylinder to drain and change ALL the fluid. Changing the reservior fluid seem like only a 1/2 measure at best.I have done it many times but it never stays clean !

I would think it is like the C5, and yes you can bleed or flush it from under the car but it is a real PIA. You have to remove the tunnel plate and search for the bleeder as you can not see it.
I put a remote bleeder on my C5 and if I ever have the clutch out of my Z06 I will do the same..

I plan to replace the tunnel plate on my z06 the next weekend I'm free. Is it worthwhile to install an extension then, or is it much more involved than just the tunnel plate?
