As there is virtually no way to bleed the system of air, it is designed to
work with some air in it.  I've never seen a car with a setup as this
without air in the line.  Don't worry about it.  As long as you see some oil
in the line and a reading on the gauge you're fine.

Does it matter and is it easy to remove?
