there must be two openings in the nasal cavity. Ostium means opening. Meatus means opening also. So if it is as you say, then ostium (opening) meatal (opening) complex is what you are referring to. Plus that, there is no such word as ostio.
I was referring to the osteum (bone) and meatus (opening) or the osteomeatal complex of the nose.
