Patching with metal putty is like using Elmer's glue. Won't work. I'd also never use a rubber mount

Take a trip through these pictures.....

i've been having the problem since before the rubber was put on it . But now that I've looked at it i can take the rubber off drill a hole in the motor then run a strap and my idea can work alot better thnx .

Strap ...highly unworkable. I don't think you could get the strap tight enough to inhibit engine movement...I fabricated a mount and secured with a muffler clamp.
 
Well Ron I fixed my problem thnx to you I took a part of one of your mods and went with it . I got a piece of angle iron and drilled 4 holes in it as well as 2 holes in the engine for the angle iron to mount onto. I mounted the angle iron to the motormount that was already on the frame and away I went happier than a kid in a candy store . THANX for your help
