All the mounts I can locate are the side mount style.

But this may help you out, I have a 283 sbc in my 1950 3600 and I used the horse shoe mount from a '60-'61 v-8 chevy truck. The holes in the horse shoe mount match (visually) to the mounting system from earlier 6cyl AD truck front mounting system.
I just used the cover, plate, rubber biscuit and housing from an AD truck.
