This often called a "Busmount Engine Adaptor", used to mount engines that
don't have the rear case mounts, into a 68-71 bus that requires them.
Thy are available from many VW specialty houses, such as Johnny's Speed
and Chrome and others. Have a look at the ads in Hot VWs magazine,
available in most grocery stores and bookstores.

Paradoxically, the case mounts you have on your engine (the ones that
haven't broken off, anyway), may get in the way of your using this
adaptor. It might be possible to saw off the adaptor's lugs where your
engine still has good mounting points, and use only the one adaptor lug
where your case mount is broken. Anyone tried this?
