Nose part that might be pierced (6)

I believe the answer is:

septum

(Other definitions for septum that I've seen before include "Partition between two cavities of the nose" , "Division between nostrils" , "Dividing partition between the nostrils" , "Partition between two chambers" , "Partition in nose between nostrils" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
