MF 390 restoration?

Can anyone identify where these sealing strips go? I removed the bonnet and side panels of my MF 390 for spraying and have these left over when reassembled and can't remember where they came from! Two of the short ones seem to come from behind the front grill (to protect the plastic fuel tank?). The long one is 7ft or 2250mm and has me beat. Anyone? The top section in the second photo is the long seal.

Yes, that does help. But I'm still stuck on that 7 foot seal! Anyway, I have some of those in place now and assume they are not vital anyway. Thank you so much. One of those questions that no one else could answer, including the Facebook group. Full marks! :)

No 7 looks like it might be a bit of wide foam...pt no.3611651M2
Can't get a separate picture of it...


I don't recognise No. 7 at all. I think the answer is to just leave it. I still can't place the 7 foot long seal as it looks too long to go anywhere.

I took the bonnet and panels off over a year ago (tractor works fine without them). I'm in my mid 80s now and I forget why I've gone into the kitchen! I took the oil cooler off and rested it against a stanchion to the barn. It took me three days for me to find it again! :rolleyes: But gradually getting there.
