engine mounts on both sides.

also, check ur radiator rubber mounts on top, as they age they will rip apart.

the transmission should be eliminated from the equation by simply pressing on the clutch and putting it into gear.

could be a broken up catalytic converter or engine mounts ripped.

could also be from inside the engine but it would be evident by a copper oil shower from the drain plug and the 0 reading on the oil pressure gauge.

Repairs? if your shaft wobbles it's cheaper to just buy another engine!
