Fuel Pressure Test Point?

I'm going to help a non-mechanical friend diagnose her '94 2.0L Jetta - I found fuel pressure specs in her Haynes manual, but it makes no mention of a test point.
Going by memory, I believe it is multi-point injected. Can anyone tell me where the test point is located and if it's a Schrader type, or if this engine even has a fuel pressure test point?
I have no familiarity with VWs - all my experience is on 80s/90s Chevys & old Fords, so I appreciate your help !

Looking at the fuel rail of a non-turbo 2L engine there
is a barbed metal end with a small screw. (Opposite end
from where the fuel lines & regulator connect.)
I haven't tried this but it looks like you remove the screw to
attach a test hose. However, the screw is above the distributor
so you'll want some container to catch any leakage, I'd suspect
the fuel remains under pressure so proceed with caution.

Thanks, David! I noticed that when I looked at the car tonightand was thinking the same thing. I'll investigate that more next time.
