You're probably talking about the little strip of foam shown in

Hey Kris, take a look at this? the 2 pictures of this show the
airflow going in the opposite direction? where did this thing go?

I see no indication of airflow direction? The cowl probably just makes
certain air doesn't recirculate around the edges of the fan giving
slightly better cooling efficiency, perhaps damping the noise a little
too?
