A large ussaly oval shaped vessel used by some to bathe in, while others may use it for proofing moonshine. They are commonly found lying around the front yard in certain areas of the country.

In context, it’s a colloquial generic name for a case of some sort that contains gears in an oil bath. Could be a transmission case, differential case, transfer case, gearbox housing, etc.

Kind of doubt you’d be able to find it by that name in a parts list/diagram.
