coolant, i'd guess. i would just delete that stupid plastic connector and run a straight metal elbow or, if you really want to have a bleeder still, a metal aftermarket bleeder piece.

cooling system on this car must've been designed by some sick fu**... it's that bad.

Z1 has a nice aluminum one.

But seems like it would be just has hard to get a clamp over that one as the standard plastic one. I have to use a spill free funnel to bleed the system or I always end up with air pockets even if I use the bleeder. My kid has a Murano (same VQ35DE) and it doesn't come with a bleeder valve installed in the line. The FSM tells you to disconnect at the firewall to burp it. Yeah.... right. Not in that transverse engine crossover engine compartment. Can't even see it back there much less burp it there.

I put those Z1 bleeders on both sides of mine when I replace all the coolant hoses around the motor years back

Easy bleed with front on ramps and leveraging the two Z1 bleeders
