Help ID 390 mounts

1968 390 in my 56. I purchased the truck done so I'm not sure if these are the stock engine mounts for a 390. They don't look like the ones I see on line. Any ideas based on these pics. Volare front.

Thanks
Ed

Definitely not stock FE mounts that I can tell.

Any suggestions on places to purchase based on looks? I sent some pics to Napa just waiting on a reply.

It looks like only one bolt attaching the mount to the engine, the FE mounts use two and have one stud through a hole in the engine perch. I wonder if they are an adaptation of a Volare mount? I would try a picture book and look at all the Volare engine mounts.

putts right...does not look like any FE mount and not very strong looking..just pull it and try and match it up at the parts store..even better get a set on stands from any FE truck and bolt in better..
