Different motor mounts

[e7medic]

I am installing a 165hp I6 to replace my blown one. However The mounts on the block of the newer engine are different. Does Mercruiser make different types of mounting brackets or do I have to make one on my own.

The front mount is there on both sides however one is vertical and the other is horizontal.
