There is a screw on top of the bellhousing, are you supposed to remove it and insert some kind of zerk for greasing or what??

Probably a grease cup, unscrew it and fill the cup with grease when you screw it back on it gives the primary drive bearings a shot of grease.

You can take it off and tap to 1/8 NPT and install a grease zerk

Some older Volvos had a grease fitting there.They got cheap and put in a screw.
You can put in a fitting.Grease it while it's running.A couple of pumps will work after the passage is full.J
