It's incorporated into the throw out bearing and the transmission has to be removed to change it.

thanks Luckily the slave cylinder isn't the problem as I know of right know I thought i would need bleeding because it wasn't getting the right pressure but so i wanted to clean out the system to test it out but while i was fiddling with things i noticed the pressure was because of the master cylinder I removed it and ordered a new one i'll have to wait and see from there thanks for the help i found the slave cylinder's bleeding nipple as well.

The problem is usually the result of a leak at either the slave or the master. They don't get air in them unless they run too low.
