What is this called?
I just saw this rubber strip under the hood was falling off. I attempted to look for a replacement online, but I can't seem to find any weather stripping listed for the front.

I tried "weather strip", "seal" and "gasket" when searching. It looks like a peal and stick tape.

Nope you're looking at the seal at the front of the hood. If you notice from the picture the air intake housing is right there. 
Sorry.....guess you're referring to the part referenced in the other reply.

I had the exact same thing happen to my front seal on my C5, simple fix: clean the area of the car with alcohol pad to remove dirt, then take the tape from the plastic they sell in home depot or lowes used to stick plastic over a draft window and use a dryer to tighten it. Its almost the same double sided thin tape used. No point in buying the whole thing if the strip is in good condition IMO.
