The bottom bolt was just missing, the top bolt was broken almost flush with the case so I Dremeled a groove in the stub and took it out with a screwdriver....easier said than done but it is done..finally...

Notice the gap at the bottom of the motor mount in the first picture. That shows why original mounts are better than float a motor mounts.
It looks like at least one of the bell housing bolts has a rounded head, rather than a flat head. It might have been switch with another engine bolt of the same size. The side water inlet has rounded head bolts, and the timing cover does also.
