I'm trying to find a source for an original front mount. I bought one a while ago and while it would work, it required changing the hardware setup. I went ahead and reused the original since it was not torn, but all the years in oil haqven't done it any good. In fact, I still have a weep of oil at the base of the timing cover among other places. I've not seen an old engine dry as a bone but there have to be some tricks. Thanks in advance.

Pre68 dave: The 261 is in a 62 chevrolet lwb. It is the original engine from the factory, an option only that year. The mount is in the front attached to the plate by the timing cover and a tab on the front side of the crossmember.
