I tried to clear it all out but it was too far down into the fluid ways, how they bleed the brakes I have no idea. My first thoughts when I saw the missing nipple was, not a problem drill out the old one best I can, stud extractor to remove what was let, not a problem, recut the threads, how wrong I was.
