Now, with this broken I'd bet the front mount rubber is now twisted / separated, and the trans mounts are probably deformed / leaking. That's allot of movement.

Geesh, I hope they didn't really use such a weak mounting point for something as important as holding the motor and tranny up. Did you see how thin those gussets are? The breaking point is a cross-shaped break only a couple MM thick. The belt-driven accessories have beefier mounting points.
I haven't looked at mine that closely, but I would hope that this mounting point is just to augment something else that is supposed to hold all that weight and torque. And that's the part that failed or came unbolted which caused this... I hope.
The OP never said whether or not the bolt on top is still connected. I asked if it's there, but he hasn't replied.
