I have what i think is a bad engine mount, have questions

I have a 2007 mt sport , it definitely feels like a bad engine mount. I can feel the engine vibrating through the car at idle and also while driving. its not a miss-fire.
my question is i have inspected the mounts the only mount i can see is bad is the torque mount in front of the transmission its ripped. i'm not sure if thats the cause of the vibration since it doesn't actually hold the engine. are the other mounts prone to failing? how can i tell if the passenger side mount is faulty? I can see the upper transmission mount and it seems fine.

thanks guys for any help

a bad trans mount could be causing the vibrations. IF you can fiscally see the mount is torn why not replace that one then go from there?

It's not the trans mount it's the torque mount In front of the trans. If it was the mount on top of the trans I would replace that first. Just trying to figure out how to check the passenger side mount as it looks like it's a hydraulic mount
