gate or sprue
Explanation:
depends on the context.

Sprue refers to the moulded part

2 a : the part of each impression of a drop-forging die that receives the rough bar from which the forging is made and connects the edge of the die block with the gate or flash b : the waste portion of a drop forging that fills the sprue in the dies"
