German term or phrase: links hinten
Das Ölfiltergehäuse befindet sich links hinten am Zylinderkopf

I am worried about mistranslating "links hinten" Is the oil filter housing located on the rear, left-hand side of the cylinder head? On the left-hand side behind the cylinder head? Something entirely different?
