horn
Horn. The metal disc that fits on the end of a motor; printed parts screw onto it. Each motor ships with two, one with gear teeth around its edge for the driven end and one plain disc for the other end.Source: waveshare.com · lerobot/docs/source/so101.mdx#joint-1

Gripper motor. Motor 6, the last in the chain. It opens and closes the claw.Source: lerobot/docs/source/so101.mdx#2-set-the-motors-ids-and-baudrates · lerobot/docs/source/so101.mdx#gripper--handle

Output shaft. The end of the motor that turns. It has a short grooved stub; the geared horn pushes onto it and is held by one M3x6 screw.Source: mantech.co.za · lerobot/docs/source/so101.mdx#joint-1

M3x6 screw.
M3x6. A screw size. M3 means a 3 mm thread, 6 means 6 mm long. It has a machine thread and goes into the threaded holes of a horn; the same size holds each printed part to its horn.Source: mantech.co.za · lerobot/docs/source/so101.mdx#joint-1

Motor 6 · gripper

The motor you labelled 6: STS3215 motor,

1:345

Gear ratio. The number on the motor's label, such as 1:345. The motor inside turns 345 times for one turn of the output. The follower arm uses 1:345 at all six joints. The leader arm mixes 1:191, 1:345 and 1:147, so check the label before fitting a motor.Source: lerobot/docs/source/so101.mdx#step-by-step-assembly-instructions · SO-ARM100/README.md#sourcing-parts

Stand-in shape: the 3D geometry or placement is not measured from the real part.
Qty 7 is the two-arm build (6 follower + 1 leader). A 12V variant with 30 kg.cm stall exists for the follower only and needs a 12V 5A+ supply (README). Includes two horns and a 3-pin cable per the assembly texts; kit contents are not itemised upstream. Geometry: the upstream repo's own simplified body `STEP/SO100/STS3215_03a.step` (Apache-2.0, single solid drawn to the datasheet, D-007 for where they differ) with its fused horn plates cut off and the datasheet ø6 x 3.4 output boss added, posed on the embedded vendor model's transform; the vendor mesh is not redistributed.

Ships with the servo. "Each servo is equipped with two steering wheels, one with gears and the other without" (Waveshare). Qty = one per servo for two arms. Geometry: drawn from the datasheet Accessories drawing: ø19.95 plate 2.5 thick, ø9 hub to 4.5 overall, ø3.2 centre bore, 4-M3 on ø14; the plate outline is drawn as the circle (the drawing shows a polygon whose side count is not dimensioned) and the 25T spline is not modelled.
