I am putting in a new Cowl vent seal in from Steele.  This might be a stupid question but which side faces down into the Cowl track? The smooth section or the U shaped section?  The U shpaed section fits the cowl shape so I was wondering if the metal cowl closes into that?  If I put it in that way, it doesn't lay correctly.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

Assuming the 40 is the same as the 38 (I have a 38) the seal goes on the cowl side. The door closes onto the seal. You can see the seal in place on my 38 in the photo below.
