The mount only attches to the tranny through a rubber bushing type thing. The Y-block does not attach to it at all. The tranny has a threaded stud sticking out of the bottom which goes through the rubber bushing in the mount. There is no direct contat between metal with the mount and tranny. My car has a manual swapped into an auto and it has a custom solid mount which translates alot of vibration to the shifter. It is strong though, and never needs replacement.

yes im missing this threaded stud peice. Lemme go check this **** to see what i got.

I'm posting off of pure memory so some details may be questionable.

I have no idea. Looks like you're gonna need to be a little creative. Maybe you could grind out the weld and thread in a new stud?

any random holes at this time can be used to attatch nooses. Reminds me of my first engine swap project, ran into one problem after another, and when your 17-18 and have little to no money even minor problems are major ones, I feel your pain.
