After some research I found this Bulletin:

https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/20...44239-0001.pdf

Called my local dealer and because I'm under CPO they wanted an hour of labor to diagnose and were two weeks out.

The part number for the seal is: 54-10-5-B32-973

The dealer price matched it at $46, and within 15 minutes I had it installed and the wind noise is SOOO much better and I'm sure it is much more water tight.

I used BMW Gummi-Pflege Rubber Care - BMW (83-19-2-449-390) to lubricate the "track" the seal is mounted on and it slid right in place. I did apply two small beads of the adhesive to the seal per the bulletin.

My SA just reached back out after my original call to him on the wind noise/seal issue. He explained that this will impact nearly every X3/4/5/6/7 with a panoramic sunroof as the Factory was not applying glue to the seal. He said that you can actually pull of the seal and stretch it a bit and re-install with recommended adhesive applications (see SIB in my earlier post) and it will stay in form because the adhesive will "hold it" at the ends in place.
