Can't help you on how it faces, but you use rope and something slick on the rubber to install the window. The rope goes into outside groove of the rubber after the rubber is installed around the window. While you are putting pressure on the window in the cab opening, someone inside pulls the rope out of the groove and that makes the rubber jump over into the cab and seats it into the cab opening.

You can get a rubber window seal from LMC.
Or are you talking about the fleece channel the glass slides in?
If you want a window gasket you need to know if it has the push in moulding and if it is a factory slider.
Factory sliders have a double wide channel in the rubber, aftermarket sliders have a thinner flange that will fit a fixed glass gasket.

Rear Window weatherstrips that fit our trucks with Factory installed Glass...
D3TZ-1042084-A: For Factory Brushed Aluminum Sliding Rear window: 1973-1981
E0TZ-1042084-A: For Solid Window, without insert moulding: 1980-1996/7
E0TZ-1042084-B: For Solid Window, With insert moulding: D7TZ-1042430-A: 1980-1996/7
E2TZ-1042084-A: For Factory Sliding Rear Window: Requires insert moulding: D7TZ-1042430-A: 1982-1996-97
You can tell if the window is factory or not because Ford glass is etched with CARLITE on it or with replacement glass the Ford Oval Logo.
Notice it says to use sealer in the top corners around the Roof and cab "B" pillar seams.
