    That mount looks like it is in the center of a long unsupported tube with
 no
    triangulation. The material between the rubber bushings appears to be in
 bending
    only. Perhaps the installation is not yet completed.

Jerry mentioned in an earlier post it is not done. He said he
will add a brace tube.

A 1/2" o.d. tube will be added to brace that point.  Also, the
bracket that is attached to the engine  is pretty beat up.   It was
"adjusted"  by heating in the forge and then beating it with my
biggest hammer.  This happened a number to times  as I kept changing
my mind between bracing to the horizontal tube or to the fire wall
which required a different angle.  Final version will be aluminum.
