Default How many bleeders per caliper?

I'm getting ready to bleed the brakes on my 1986 951. Clark's garage says there should be two bleed nipples per caliper. I can only see one. I haven't taken the wheels off yet though, so maybe there is an additional bleeder on the wheel side? Used a mirror, but couldn't find anything.

Do all turbo brakes have two bleeders? FYI, my brake calipers are black and say 'brembo' on the rear. Are these the standard brakes?

Thanks!

Gary.

Yes, those are standard brakes, there is 1 bleeder on the top of each side on each caliper. 8 total.
