There are none mate. There are drain plugs, no bleed points though.

Basic steps are

  1. Fill coolant through rad cap
  2. replace rad cap
  3. fill expansion tank to max level
  4. start engine
  5. Heater on highest temp
  6. run car at 2000 rpm 'til hot
  7. allow to fully cool
  8. top up expansion tank to max level

Mine has (Standard GS300, Auto 1995). Look at the silver metal heater water pipes near the passenger side firewall in the engine compartment. There is one sticking vertically up with a grey plastic cap with the letter L on it. Undo it and inside there is a pin valve (like those on tyres). Press on it with a blunt object and air gushes out and you are done; my heater was not working but now works a treat after I did this 10 second job.

That is the low pressure side of your air con mate, not water. You have just jiggered your air con if you did what you said above.

Sorry chap.
