Have you tried the dealer? How about automotive weatherstrip JC Whitney has a large choice but, I would try the dealer first.

Are you asking about the u-shaped rubber on the old OMC motors? I stuck some regular foam weatherstripping on the bottom of the cover, where the motor's lower cowling will touch it. It helped a bit.
