Italian term or phrase: frangifluidi
This is an item of a 'kit di pompaggio' for a pneumatic oil pump: grigliato *frangifluidi* in acciaio verniciato.

The other items include: rubinetto, regolatore di pressione aria, tubo di aspirazione, tubo di mandata con terminale rigido, staffa metallica supporto pompa

It sounds like a grille to stop fluids, but I have not found the term used anywhere.

Explanation:
Assuming you're taking about an automotive/truck oil drain pan with pump like this one (model 3254),

I believe the word is supposed to be "frangiflusso". It's basically a mesh or expanded metal grate that lies on top of an oil change pan. It minimizes splashes when the oil gushes out. Some manufacturers call it a splash shield others a splash guard, or anti-splash grille. In this context, I'd use the latter for clarity's sake.

fluid breaker / flow regulator


Explanation:
this is not in the automotive sector, but they may have adopted it from there. Also could just be flow breaker. Seems like something you use to regulate the flow, or make it more even, in a pump. See second reference - could be a flow regulator.
