Both of you are correct...but notice that both ports are above the cylinder.
It turns out there's a funky angle on both of 'em, but the center
back port actually is at the very top/back corner of the cylinder.
If you look closely at a removed caliper that's cleaned up, you can
see the seat for the bleeder in the correct(back) port.
Thanks all,
Brett
