I need to put some brake fluid in my sleds reservoir and then bleed the air out of the system, in the attached picture, is that where I bleed the air from?

That looks like a funky fitting but similar. What's plugging the end of it, dirt and junk? If the reservoir is just a little low you don't need to bleed it at all.

I'll check to see if something is plugging it. The reservoir was real low so after putting some brake fluid in and pumping the brake handle, it firm up nice.
I'll check it again tomorrow.

I checked the owner's manual,they say fill the chaincase through the dipstick hole.
I've looked through the owner's manual and they don't show the brake air bleeder, I should have time tomorrow so I can take the side panel off and get a better look.

That does look like a bleeder on top of a caliper. You should not have to add brake fluid, it gets low due to the pads wearing away, needing more fluid to work. You might have a leak.
I think the leak was around the reservoir but since I added brake fluid, I'm not seeing any leaks in that area......yet.
