Hardtop Seal For W107, Cant't Find, Need Help

I have a 450sl hardtop that is in need of a new rubber seal. Although, the seal needed is not shown on the Mercedes parts diagram, I thought someone might know what it is and maybe a part number. The seal is located behind the center, rear chrome moulding at the bottom of the hardtop below the rear glass. This particular seal runs the entire length of the rear glass and fits on a metal lip. I have ordered the seals on the parts diagram and none are right. I threw the old one away thinking I would be able to get another one easily. Also, this is not the seal that fits between the hardtop and body. I can email a picture of the area in question if you think it might help. I would appreciate any leads.

Thanks
Joe

Maybe it was not an MB part

I heard about someone putting rubber between the glass and the outside trim molding to stop a rattle or leak or something. the only rubber that touches the glass is the butyl seal that holds the inside of the glass to the outside of the window frame.
Did you take the glass out?
