Working in a local hotel, last renovated in the late 80's, asked to
bleed a rad in one of the rooms;

The tee is plastic, as is the pipe going to the right.

I'm at a loss as to whats going on - needless to say I didn't touch
it in case something leaked.


Is there a pipe coming out of the bottom of the Tee?


Nope.

What about the other side of the rad - same arrangement?


No, quite normal.

One possibility is that another rad has been tacked onto and existing
rad feed and return.


Yerbut - in plastic?

Bleeding it ought to be ok, but I understand the desire not to fiddle
with the tail connections! ;-)


It bled OK, I'm just stunned by the plastic tee.
