Default Grease fitting on rear shock linkage ; lube connections

In the owners manual on page 41 it talks about lubing the shock absorber connecting links every 500 miles . The picture of the rear shock on page 40 shows a lubricator fitting and grease retainer . What type of fitting is this? I can not find anything that looks like a grease fitting or retainer on my late 31 sw. Any suggestions ?

Thanks

Someone in the past may have installed the "dog bone" links that came out after 32 ? Grease not required.
