Not sure what the isolation bolts are but the ones underneath the engine itself had fallen out who knows how many years ago lol.

If your 212 is like mine there is a steel pan that the engine bolt too and then this steel pan is mounted on four rubber isolation mounts. These mounts have stamped sheet metal ears that brake off and can allow the engine to move. On mine it moved or tipped back and chafed the battery cable until it shorted out and threww some serious sparks on the side of the steel gas tank. Kind of exciting for few seconds...
