1978 Newport 17' replacement bow windshield pad

I do not know the proper nomenclature and would appreciate any guidance on where to find this piece. (Taylor was a "no.") The Newport 17 has a approximately 10 inch wide windshield that wraps around the bow. The windshield sits in this rubber double channel weather stripping that I cannot find ANYWHERE. When the boat is clean it looks new, except for this nasty, moldy piece. Any thoughts?
