im guessing thats a pit with crew members in it on the side of the ship, like in the movies where vader stands between port and star on a platform above them
am i right
if i am i have a second question
can i use those words to describe a area similar in my book or is crew pit a taken term by star wars?
You can use portside crew pit. Star Wars is buried under so many terms like comlink, or portside crew pit, that unless you're using lightsaber, jedi, sith lord, Death Star, Endor, Jabba's Palace, or concepts that Star Wars couldn't do without, you should be ok.

I'm almost certain I heard them use the term hydrospanner in an episode of Star Trek. I first heard that term in The Empire Strike Back, so you're pretty safe.
