Circled in red - Johnson part number 311251
It is a mid 65-68 part (I believe) it is basically a aluminum plate that covers the end of the rubber strip that goes around the engine cover on my 40hp Seahorse RDS-23 The engine is not with me so I’m using a stock photo I borrowed from a friend. If anyone knows where to look post it here.
I’m open to the whole cover. I really appreciate the help locating one. I’m located in CT and not a lot of old engine shops left. I tried the sticky at the top but got no where. :(

Thank you! I ordered it as it was really In expensive. I will check my parts book when it arrives. Thank you. It did not come up in my searches on eBay at all.
Much appreciated.

Thank you. That particular one has been coming up in searches along with a few more. It was so complete I hated to take that one away from some else who needed a full cover when all I need is that one part. It was a back up plan for sure. Thank you for the assistance.
