292 front motor mount confusion

292 front motor mount confusion
I bought a 60 f100 4x4 without engine or trans. I bought a 292 which was was it had originally thinking going back to original would be easy. Somebody hacked in an automatic and they hacked the trans crossmember which I believe is also the rear motor mount. So, I'm in the market for one of those.
My question is about the front engine mount. Searching the forum I've come across 2 references to the f100 292 front plate having a single mount point, which my engine does. It looks like this
My truck, however, has a spread pair of mounts in the front that will require a plate like this
So, I'm in the market for one of these. I've read that different plates may require different timing covers so I'm not excited about trying to pull one off an engine while it's in a truck in a junk yard or buy one on epay only to find out it doesn't fit my timing cover. I'm wondering if there is a way to make the single point mount I have work with my truck? Anybody know why mine has the spread mounts and the only other 1960 f100 mounts ive found referenced are single point? Is there some reason I want to keep the spread mounts even if I have a hard time finding the plate? Thanks in advance.

Hey Bill, I just came across this thread that answers my question. Its the 6028 I just got off ebay and it looks like I can not get the brackets that Im looking for (5057 and 5058). I would then need the actual mounts. If I am reading the diagram correctly, timing covers is not an issue. They are all the same?
