Default Problem finding correct engine snub mount for 96 12 valve v6

Hey guys, I purchased a front snub engine mount from autozone. I went to install it and realized mine wasn't blown out, it was gone for the most part! After removing the broken portion of the mount I then realized the mount I purchased wasn't right at all! I purchased it from autozone for my model. And from cruising online all the stock pictures seem to look like the one I purchased. But there is no way this mount is going to work for me. It does not mount to the engine or the chassis correctly. Here are some pictures showing what I'm working with.

One thing I should mention is this car was wrecked at one point, and the core support has for sure been replaced, and possibly the engine. (Is the VIN anywhere on these engines? Not really worried about that right now, just curious...)

The broken portion I removed from the engine. (There are 3 total bolts that secure it to the engine)


What the chassis looks like directly infront of where the snub mount affixes to the engine. (It looks to be a rectangular opening with rounded edges.)


And finally, the mount I purchased from autozone.


If anyone has any input on where I can get the correct mount, or a part number I would really appreciate it. I need to get this thing ready for the road, it's my only car!

After digging around endlessly I thought of searching ebay. I came up with this.



Looks like I found what I need. Now what is the mount that I purchased from autozone for? lol
