Body panel between trunk and rear window, 72 cutlass

I am looking for the Body panel between the trunk and rear window on a 72 cutlass supreme that extends between the rear quarters and runs the length of the rear window. This is the piece that includes the weatherstrip channel for the trunk.

I've heard it called tulip panel as well by my uncle but its always been referred to as the front trunk trough, (pronounced troff,) here in the north east. Guess the name given varies per area of the country?
