Help needed! All 4 engine mounts wanted ASAP

Car  172 Cup
My 172 Cup is in for some work next week but we are struggling to get the parts. I need all the engine mounts for a 172 Cup (o/s engine mount, dog bone and there are two attached to the gearbox I believe). I'm looking for OEM spec parts but beggers can't be choosers. Does anyone have all four (longest shot ever!) or know who's got them in? (KAM and KTEC don't seem to have them).
 
Are you looking for new mounts, or would you take some used ones? I've just taken all 4 off my car to replace them with solid mounts, so you're welcome to them? They were all in pretty decent condition, didn't seem to be much play in them at all.

Can you send some photo's, please? How many miles have they done? My car is now on 133k and i'm guessing they were never changed.

I could grab you some pictures tonight if needed, don't think I've got any currently. They've probably done about 30k miles, the top engine mount has zero play. They only one I don't have is the dogbone mount, but they differ between the Ph1 and Cups anyway.
 
This is the one you are missing

Slightly confused here (not for the first time). I have the above mount (thanks to Chazza) but in the kit I got sent I don't have a new one of these but I have this:

Corteco Rear Engine Mount - 80000123 (OE 7700849715)

Are there 5 mounts??
 
Mate there are 4 mounts

One on the drivers side inner wing at the top:
View attachment 1744419

One above the gearbox
View attachment 1744420

One below the gearbox at the front onto the subframe
View attachment 1744421

And the rear dog bone which I don't have a picture of.

That's what I thought after reading up on them and looking at some vids, along with people on here giving advice. So my question is what is the Corteco mount that I've been sent?
 
Any ideas about this extra mount? I've looked online but can't see what I would be unless it's for an early 172.
 
It was very easy when I had the engine out 😂


But from memory its pretty straight forward, you have to put a jack under the engine/gearbox then unbolt stuff, there is a little bracket that unbolts from the gearbox casing then the whole lots pulls out.

Have a look through many many pics here:

Mine was quite compressed compared to the new one. Physically it was fine and I changed it because I was there, it wasn't torn but it was about half a cm shorter than the new one (which likely makes F all difference).
