Heater hose connector (with bleed screw) Z1

Yes. Comment- If Nissan Engineers wanted a bleeder port fitting, (a T or a 3-way) then it would be there. I thought why isn't it? Perhaps the potential to leak is greater and O-Rings can and do become more rigid/brittle over time. Considering the exposure to a more heated environment that is even more likely to occur and leak. So it made more sense to me and went this route. *I do like what "1st", mentioned in his previous comment. Rock on Bro!!

While you're at it, grab the heater hoses as well—they're on sale for Black Friday. The Coolant Bleeder Port - Heater Hose is also on sale.

No thanks, many owners have experienced sweating with the Z1 hoses.
