There is actually a lot on this topic, but I think it is how people are describing it: coolant overflow neck, overflow stud etc.

The best advice I could find is: Don't touch it any more than you have to. Also be aware of how the small clamp is attached. Don't position it in such a way that there is lifting on it by the clamp or the hose attached.
