Motor Mount Advice--Has this one failed? 200 1987

I’m surprised to consider possible reversal of the mounts. A reputable indy shop did the install. My passenger mount *does* have the locator button visible on the edge of the bottom bracket.
The driver’s side mount is supposed to have the offset mounting bolts, and the rubber locator pin in the center? Is that right?

Comparing new OEM and ScanTech passenger-side mounts at the dealer (using the Charmin pinch-test), the Volvo mount felt slightly softer. This leads me to consider the diesel mount, instead of the Volvo OEM.
