Answer:
In NY it is called "Gravy", I'm not eye-talian but, thats what I hear used for "Sauce", I went into an I-talian deli by my apt, years ago (i did'nt have a car then) and kept asking for a can of gravy, twice I got home to find a pint of "Marinara" in the bag, I had a good mind to go back and complain but, it was so damn delicious !
Pesto.
Uh, pasta sauce maybe.
Italians most definitely call pasta sauce "gravy."
Some Italian Americans do say gravy for tomato sauce. I grew up in an Italian American house and we said sauce.
Marinara sauce (from Italian alla marinara 'sailor style') is another term for a simple and generally quickly made tomato sauce for pasta made without meat and usually including tomatoes, onions and herbs. This usage of the term is confined to the United States, while in Italy it refers to seafood sauces for pasta, risotto, or pizza (with or without tomato sauce). Marinara sauce is spicy, often made with large amounts of garlic and chile pepper, but not to the degree of Fra Diavolo sauce. It can be used for any dish that requires tomato sauce, and is generally quicker to prepare than other tomato sauces. It is often used as a dipping sauce for foods such as calzone and fried mozzarella sticks.
Sugo-the proper Italian term for sauce

Sugo alfredo (cream sauce)
Sugo bolognese (meat sauce, bolognese style)
Sugo verde (pesto)

There are numerous others

"Gravy" is an Italian American term from New Jersey-I grew up calling it "sauce"
