Not sure on the original black stuff, but if it was me I would be using a black polyurethane such as Sikaflex 11fc, or Sikaflex 285 - there are other black polys which are probably OK too such as Bostik or Parfix. All of them will set with some flexibility. Make sure the mating surfaces are clean, use alcohol or metho, not turps. Steer clear of the silicones as they will probably not last well. Simon

Selleys 'D-MASTIC' industrial grade skin forming black sealant is what they use on windscreens and panel joints. This is messy stuff though.
As said before Sikaflex can be used as a good alternative.
