Default 37-39 Headlight Gasket

Anyone know exactly where the gasket and retainer go on a 37 tudor headlight ? Does the gasket and retainer go around the bucket lip ? I will attempt to change my sealed beams back to the reflector and bulbs tomorrow, it may be straight forward when I have it opened up tomorrow, but nothing like knowing where it goes in advance. Thanks Zeke

The thick rubber gasket/seal (13066) goes on the headlight bucket and the retainer (13067) goes around it and holds it on; the lense will set on this combine.

Was the original gasket/seal (13066) made of rubber or cork? I see both are available.
