If it's just he center bolts or the motor mount, clean it up and reinstall tight after engine alignment. If the mounts are soft, need to rebuild the stringer and mount. Could use some pics to see what your running into.

Yes, remove drive for any work on engine mounts

Is just the center bolt the mount is solid, I don't know hot post pictures how I do it?

Either use photobucket or upload the pic by selecting the icon which looks like a tree.
Now if you use the engine alignment bar and your drive is in alignment then wire brush the bolt, add some paint and relax, there is no issue
