Talking Engine tilted.

Noticed tailpipes hanging crooked. All back mounts seemed ok so took the bumper off to get a better look. The driver side of the muffler is two inches lower than the passenger. The cat pipe appears to be resting on the sway bar. Engine runs ok and car actually rides pretty close to normal. I’m just guessing at this point, but seems the next step is to take off the scrap guards and check the front mounts. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I bought the car about 9 months ago and while fixing some of the 35 issues saw that the engine mount metal looked really clean so assumed it had been replaced. I confess to violently thrashing the car on a weekly basis. I leave my driveway and it’s virtually a secluded hairpin drivers paradise—but bumpy.
Side note: couldn’t get Michelin 4s for 17” rims so just got some new continental extreme attack. Can’t wait to attack and report how they do.
