my mate is converting the rear of his HZ kingswood to WB disc, and I was just wondering where the residual pressure valve is and how to remove it

Remove the line from the M/C to the rear brakes, it's in there. Apparently it's a brass olive and needs to be carefully removed using a self tapping screw. Screw it into the olive and once it bites, it should be able to be pulled out. Excuse the vauge description.

Remove the brass olive as chopper said, the valve is behind this. Once removed replace the olive and refit the brake line.

I'm curious, can you buy replacement brass olives? When I did mine, I damaged the seating face of the olive and it's been weeping ever since. <_<

No you can't buy olives
Only way to get them in in a major kit from PBR
If your handy with a lathe you can spin them up and reface the seat
