Didn`t you have a solid bush in there???
This is your punishment.
Never seen a mount crack like that, but I`d probably weld it where it is.

[ontarv]

the old mount was hard
but there wasn't any cracks when
i put the new standard one in 6 months ago
engine moves alot on take offs
exhaust bangs on the floor and it has to move 3 to 4 inches to do that

it shouldnt move that much - the radiator support engine mount and the rear gearbox mount should prevent that movement if adjusted properly.
