There's a bleed valve for the heater matrix in the frunk Nick, under the plastic trim at the back.

I'd fix the leak before doing any bleeding, it's part of the cooling system as a whole and will be letting air in.

See here for a good guide:

Also quite common for the cable to come off the matrix valve in the frunk, if the temp slider feels loose have a look at that.
