Default Tubular skylight on metal roof

Is this tubular skylight installed properly? I've never seen them installed on metal roofs and was wondering if the only way to install them is like this (without flashing) and the only thing preventing water from penetrating the the structure is caulking?

You beat me to it Stephen! I took several courses on Solatube. NO this is not correct.
