I got bored at 20, and as you say silly easy.

The quiz is American-based. We'd call it a gudgeon pin.

Sump, inlet valve, circlip, etc in English.

The origin of the word gudgeon is the Middle English word gojoun, which originated from the Middle French word goujon. Its first known use was in the 15th century.

Sodium-filled valves were invented in America in the 1920s, but were developed from the earlier work on aircraft engines in England on valves filled with water or other chemicals or metals such as mercury.
