I need help with a word that I found while translating from Spanish (Chile) into English.
Here is the text and it refers to the reassembly of a diesel engine:
"debe prepararse el block instalando todos los tapones de expansión, despiches y guías"
I understand everything but the "despiche" part and I have not been able to find any reference to it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

exhaust valves
If you're talking about reassembling an engine, and the text also mentions (valve) guides, it's more likely referring to the exhaust valves. I don't know of any overflow valves which use guides,do you?
Example sentence:
After inserting the brass guides into the head, he introduced the new exhaust valves.
