22R/RE vs. V6 Motor Mounts?

I have an 86 pickup with a 22R. I bought some replacement motor mounts that are supposed to be for 4 cylinder engines.

I noticed the rubber part on the new ones is angled upward, and the hole spacing slightly narrower. I clearanced the mount brackets in the truck to accommodate.

I got them in. The front of my engine sits quite high. I found this in the Motor Mount Tech section here (emphasis added):

Aftermarket motor mounts parts numbers by obex26
Well in the process of getting aftermarket motor mounts since the cost is between 25-50 dollars versus 155-180 from the stealership I learned the hard way about part numbers and applications so I thought I would share it with everyone else. Most checker, kragen, pep boys, autozone or whatever is near you will carry an aftermarket brand called anchor. The part number for the 4 cylinder application is 8612 and the 6 cylinder application is 8614. The truck and 4runner for years 84-86 may use the part number for the 6 cylinder application even though it has a 4 cylinder engine in it. I spent two days looking for motor mounts (limited local stock on a weekend) It appears that before the 6 cylinder motor was introduced to the truck line they were already using the motor mounts. It also is a hit and miss with the truck years that the turbo and V6 were available. It seems that the 2WD trucks actually use the part number 8612 and 4WD whether its a 4 cylinder Turbo or V6 use the part number 8614.

Also to add to the above info, First gen and second gen motor mounts are different because the hole spacing on the frame is different along with the shape of the six sided base plate..
I'm thinking my truck may have a V6 mount. I haven't found a picture yet of the rubber part for a V6. Do they look like my old ones?

Original vs. new:









How high my engine is sitting. The valve cover barely fit on due to hitting the heater hoses.
