Help with this Rock Shox please

From the right side cartridge I removed the circlip and all was sparkling clean and oiled, so I closed it but forgot to take a picture.
I mean that black tube, don't know if it's a cartridge.
There were 2 seals and a strong small spring in it.

The black cylinder is the damper cartridge. It should be full of oil. If it's not, it's leaked out.it looks to be a metal body version which is great as the plastic ones were rubbish and were prone to leaking and cracking. You may be able to find seal replacements and refurbish? I'd be looking at replacing that heavily damaged stanchion before I put it all back together if you can find one.

Thanks.
So the oil only goes into the damper cartridge?
Where would I find the seals?

They aren’t 97 for sure. Looks like 96 to me.
