So I hosed em down with some Yield tonight, and plan to try that in the morning. I'll report back when it doesn't work...
Thanks...

(All I could find from MORE were their replacement frame-side motor mounts. I can't imagine what they could offer for the block side that wouldn't need the same bolt holes I'm working on... Thanks anyway!)
