Unfortunately my relatively new (6 years) forward port engine mount is badly corroded, likely from allowing saltwater to saturate it as I change the heat exchanger zinc.
I have decided to have the professionals replace all 4 engine mounts and align the shaft, as having mounts of the same type and age will help quell vibration.

Note the corrosion of the baseplate.

The new engine mounts are in, and they look very robust.
