Door trim gasket?

Finally removed all 8 rusted screws holding top trim/gutter/drip edge (didn't find the part listed in manual) over the entrance door. There seems to have been either a gasket or double stick tape behind this piece of trim that held it in place. Getting ready to reinstall and am confused if I need to replace this double stick tape. Know I will seal the top edge with Vulkem. The only double stick tape I can find is the foam type from the box store. Thanks for any help or guidance. Jack

Jack.

The vulkem only will work fine for the entrance door drip cap seal.
