gear box mounting bracket should be two slightly diffferent , go between the chassis and the rubber mounting for gearbox.
Edit actually that could be from engine drivers side front mounting.

Yep, drivers side engine mount. Explains why the rubber mounting is under great stress at an uncomfortable angle. Guess I need to get the engine hoist out again and fit my missing bit!
