I am thinking what you want to do is instead of trying to recreate what was there make something that will work instead. Just a flat piece of metal going down with a lip at the end folding under towards the outside of the door, just for strength. Then you can urethane the rubber flap that goes there, that frankly does next to nothing anyway. Water goes in the door, big deal, water goes in every door on every car, that's why there are holes in the bottom.

But that rubber as I remember has a round edge that slides into the original channel. To make that all so it would work would be pretty difficult, not impossible but maybe using a different rubber urethaned to that piece I have described.

With that said, if you get that rubber and then find a piece of tubing that would fit over it. Clamp the tube to a piece of angle iron with a strip of metal right down the center of the tube. Take a die grinder with a cut off disc and cut the slot for the rubber. Then tack weld that tubing to the piece of metal I described earlier and weld the whole thing in there, done deal.
