The odd thing is that I replaced all of the engine mounts within the last 12
months. Do they deteriorate that quickly ?

Stan,

Your engine mounts have sagged.  Just put a piece of wood under the oil pan
when lifting the engine with the floor jack.  Lift the engine enough to allow
the belt to be removed.  Then plan on replacing the motor mounts.
