Default VX motor into 1997 EK Coupe motor mount question

Hey all, I'm doing a swap from a VX into a 1997 Civic coupe, I'm only doing this cause I have the shell and motor sitting around. I know it is an older motor into a newer car but I just want to use this car as a daily beater while i'm working on my turbo gsr EG.

I used the rear mount from the vx motor and the tranny mount as well. I also used both original front lower mounts too (AC braket and the other one) but I cannot get the lower mounts to line up with the holes to bolt to the frame. I also do not know which mount to use for the timing belt area. I used to have a GSR motor in the coupe so I replaced the motor mount near the timing belt with the one for the GSR. This is not the right one for the VX motor. Does anyone think I need the original mount that went there with the sohc motor?

I know this is kinda confusing so if anything needs exlpained futher let me know and I will try to go into detail.

Cliff notes. VX motor into 1997 coupe. Do not know which motor mount to use near the timing belt. Front lower original VX motor mounts are not lining up with frame.

HELP!!!!!!! THANKS!!!!!!!!
