ok i will make it easier for you the piping for my bleed valve goes like this.
pipe from the turbo then goes to one side off the bleed valve then out the other side to the actuator and nothing coming out of the bottom. so i need to connect the bottom bit of the bleed valve to the metering unit hope that makes it easier
