I have an Electrolux fan oven but the seal is coming away at the top,. There also appears to be a gap which I am not sure if meant to be or snapped. I have some wood stove rope glue that I was hoping would fix it being high temp ?

Thanks

Some seals are fitted via tension with a metal hook inserted inside to connect the ends. If it’s not under tension you could cut a sliver of metal (tin can would do) about 50-60mm long and slide it into the slot on either end ( glue would help ).
Failing that it’s a new seal .

Would stove rope glue be OK as an adhesive?

I'd say the seal is not meant to be fixed... check for the clip(s) missing or popped out of place? Also that the part is the correct one for your exact model.

Pattern part may be cheaper?

Thanks. Can't see any clips but there is traces of white on the rubber that has peeled away which I am assuming is adhesive.
 
You might try mechanical fix, wire formed to a double ended hook into hollow centres .
Thanks but I don't think that's possible as it isn't a wire fitting, just adhesive but I'll give it a go!
 
In my, limited experience they are not normally glued in, the profile "wedges" the seal in place and allows it to expand/contract.

As per @Rodders53 's post, the corners seem to have little (hidden) clips

There are def no clips on mine in the places they are still holding. There were white traces of white dried adhesive where it had started peeling. I have tried making a wire clip and it's just impossible as nothing to hold onto.
