Butyl Patch

Butyl Patch
Hey, so I just found out that the "butyl Patch" under my cowl is completely disintegrated. For now I've put in a waterproof cloth cut to size over the place but it doesn't look like it'll hold. Is there a place where I can buy a new one (what's it called) or does GM not make that specific part? I saw the handful of DIYs on YouTube and just wanted to check before I do any.
Regards,

When I had my HHR, I replaced the patch with aluminum roof flashing, of the appropriate size, from Home Depot. Lasted the 8 years I had the car and 2 or 3 for the next owner, who was a friend. re Don't exactly remember what I used to seal it, but I believe it was some type of butyl. I believe I even posted a picture if it is still around.

I cut it to size and used the 4 minute epoxy glue to seal it in.
Appreciate the help,
