Looks like you might need to check the fit of those two bolts in the sleeves in the engine mount pad. I would probably tack weld the bolt heads in place so they don't turn. The bolts heads should probably be all the way down on the front engine plate, not up where that block is. No idea why that threaded block is there. Maybe a modification someone did along the way to run the bolts up from the bottom. I went the other direction, mounting the entire engine mount assembly to the the engine. I think it'll be easier to stab the bolts into the frame holes instead of hitting the sleeves when lowering the engine in place.
