Jeff, there are two ports on the rear iron.  Not sure which one you are talking about.  One is= on the side (5/8" heater port which should be blocked ) and a smaller one= on the top which should go to your coolant expansion tank through a small diam= eter hose.  This is the primary point where the block purges air.  If = you have this one blocked off, your coolant system is not configured as well as= it could be.

Any scheme at all that bleeds off the trapped air is a good idea.
