The one on the right is a 19 front engine mount, but what is the one on the left?

No part numbers, but the rubber bit has 83 in the little date circle thing moulded into it. 5/9/11 type mount?

He saw the pictures months ago, iirc he said he thought it was probably a GTT mount. Just want positive confirmation from someone know knows for sure.

Nope, the bracket shape looks right on that uprated one but the bracket-block bolt holes are wrong. Can't be a C-type bracket then. Must be from an F type block engined 5, therefore a GTX as david says.

someone see if the rubber part is the same between the GTX and the GTT though...
