There should only be one between the upper and lower half of air box. I lay it in the groove on the bottom half then put top on. Don't see any other way,it does come out sometimes but hasn't been a problem to get in.

A little grease will hold it down.  If someone had a K&N air filter on the bike, the seal may be missing.  Don't think the K&N's needed the seal, at least the K&N I removed.

Use some grip cement to tack difficult areas.  Roll Eyes
