New engine, wrong motor mounts?

Well, my F-1 has been off the road for almost a year now. I finally have the flattie all back together after much cursing and bleeding freely from the wallet. LOL It's taken waaaaay to long.
Should be a good runner now, every last piece has been replaced or rebuilt. Hope to install it over the weekend.......

I bought some new motor mount biscuits awhile back, and obviously got the wrong ones? These are B-6038-C, looks like '52's use the 8L-6038-b. I didn't realize there were 2 different styles.
Anybody know for sure?

Pics of both if it helps...

Yep, there is a difference. Many vendor websites don't distinguish between them.

What color is the engine? Do anything "racy" inside?

Thanks for the info on the mounts, I'll use the old ones for now and swap them out later.
