I've been looking at the mounts trying to work out which one it might be. I couldn't see much movement but after taking the battery tray out. I can see the gear box mount moving about when pushing the engine forwards and backwards so chances it will be this one?
Is there much movement on the gear box mount by hand?

It is good to replace other mounts as well - with new only one rest two will be damaged much faster. But the one on bottom is not easy changed without press and remounting axle - probably information are in guides

do you know if the mounts been undone? the gearbox mount has a metal sleeve inside that is pretty easy to lose if its undone
