Assuming you're talking about part #4, the part number is 64 11 1 370 937.

The hvac gasket as above although you can use strip weatherstripping as well. You may also want to replace the foam gaskets on all the flaps as they are guaranteed to have dried out and shredded off.

When I did my dash swap, with a new dash from BMW, I replaced that gasket with weatherstripping from HomeDepot. I also unwrapped all harnesses and rewrapped them and took out stereo wiring because I ran new wires to all my speakers back in 2010. When they were unwrapped I checked for cracks in any insulation before rewrapping.

Not for the flaps. I just used a roll of 3/8" weather stripping.
