Rubber mounts from an E28 M5 are the ones you need. You use the standard S50B30 alloy mounting arms.

Don't have any pics of the manifold, but it does need a fair amount of work to clear the bulkhead and subframe. The front half of the manifold (cylinders 1 to 3) are not too bad, but the rear section (cylinders 4 to 6) needs a lot of work.

Just to add incase you get into a bidding war on the alloy mounting arms on ebay or something, they're only about Ԛ£16 from the dealers :)

Sorry, that's probably of no use, but I'm drunk :)
