Default front Transaxle Mount on 1992 SSE

I have a '92 Bville SSE that I've had since day one. I have 171,000 miles on it. Recently it tore its third front transaxle mount, as always, at the transaxle end of the rubber. They separate where the rubber is bonded to the mounting plate. The second one was when the differential shot a baseball size chunk of ring gear out the back of the case. does anyone have any info on recalls, common experience, or thoughts on preventing this again. I'm thinking the two replacements over the years were aftermarket. nearby is on OEM in a '92 Buick Park Ave for $30.,00, so i'm gonna go that way this time. Let me know...................

Yup, I've put three of the stock ones in, but finally built myself a steel solid mount. That mount is the one that bears the grunt of the acceleration of the vehicle, so maybe light-footing it would help.
