If it has a turned up lower edge for a rain gutter, it is the later style.
The factory used some kind of black, NASTY, sealant under them, and about
the only place they leak is on the end caps, and around the fasteners if
those are loose. Having removed both the non-rain gutter style (early) and
the late ones, you can carefully remove the early style without doing much
damage. But the later ones you are going to bend the heck out of when you
remove them.
Todd Sullivan may have a better plan for them than I do, he runs
Seattle Collision Center and is my go-to guy for sealants, bonding agents
and etc. Also a past owner of GMC's.
