leading segment
I think this is probably 'leading segment' as opposed to 'trailing segment'. See link below which uses the two terms in relation to aircraft engine manufacture.

Comment: "Thanks Shane. I had hoped to hear from the client by now about their preferred translation. But since I haven't yet, and I'm urged to close the question, I guess that's it."
