It looks like there should be some sort of "L" shaped insert to pull back together that I can order. If not how do i repair?

Your photo looks like it is actually showing your snap-in glazing bead starting to whither a bit. We can help you locate a replacement. Please remove a portion of it from the window and send us some photos of it from an end profile like the diagram below. Make sure to include some measurements.

I pulled it off, hoping i can get replacement for both sides, it was just warped (Now moreso). It has a gooey strip on the top opposite the vent holes. I think the door is about 10-15 years old.

This doesn't look like vinyl snap in glazing, but rather patio door frame cladding. I don't think you can get this from Pella because it's installed at the factory. You will need to put the old cladding back on using a silicone type sealant. Failing that, you'll have to purchase a new door from Pella. I'm afraid you don't have a lot of options when it comes to this. Sorry we can't offer a better solution.
