Salut!

Comment je peux traduire cet expression.
Il s'agit, d'une partie d'une pompe. Après elle il y a la phrase "opposite side".
Je pensais à qqch comme "le coté de la machine qui est sur la terre", mais je ne sais pas comment traduire.
"Oreille de la terre"? Cosse, coin, coté, saillie...

Merci d'avance!
