    Is the engine mounts filled with anything, because when I rattle mine I hear fluid!
    I even drilled a hole at the bottom, but no fluid there!
    It feels like some weld around the mounting holes or perhaps old rust, is there only rubber or....

    No fluid, just rubber.

    That said I would just add on mine I found oil coming down from above tended to accumulate in the cavity behind the engine motor mount bracket. I drilled a little hole in the bottom of the bracket to stop it. Then, I went after the source of the leak. Some of the leaks seem mighty stubborn.
