I have 1986 coupe. I wanted to know what is the 2 inch piece of thin rubber between the wipers and the distributor. The rubber piece runs from side to side. I will get a picture......or if anyone has one

accordingly to the factory, parts and illustration catalog, and if I'm reading it correctly, the part is ID'd as a seal, plenum panel. 84-88 PN 14046741 ---- 89 PN 14104361 ---- 90-91 PN 14046766 and 92-93 PN 14104361. I find it odd that 89 and 92-93 use the same part number - ??? looks like the parts are discontinued.

'89 through end of production use the same 14104361, there was an interim but it's not a match for your 14046766, it's actually 10246766 but it's immaterial because yes it is discontinued. Your '84 - '88 part number was good.
