My question was badly written. i did not want to talk about the asm END statement, but about the END record/card in the object deck. well, one can use HEWLDIA and friends.

In fact, I was modifying a FOSS compiler which generated an object file directly, no
assembler involved.  I chose to use assembler terminology descriptively.

Compulsively, I wanted to save the storage of a branch around the eyeIcatcher. It seemed easier to generate an offset and an RLD than to invent a name for an ESD.

So long ago that I hardly remember.  But given the documentation
of the object format (input to Linkage Editor) I was able to cause
the compiler to generate an object END record that Assembler
would have generated (ESD and displacement?) if a  name had
appeared on the END statement.

CSECT ESD id displaced by length of eyecatcher.
