The cover (116) has an integrated cooling medium-flow through volume (118) exhibiting an increased surface at an internal combustion engine-side. A further component to be cooled is accommodated in an area of the cooling medium-flow through volume. The cooling medium-flow through volume is part of a cooling medium flow pipe for cooling of an internal-combustion engine. An upper cover area (128), side walls (132) and a lower surface (130) enclose the cooling medium-flow through volume, where the volume has an inlet and an outlet.
