Default 2 or 3 bolt post mount?

Just blew the stock drivers side post mount during a 1-2 shift and I have to order anew one but how can you tell if it is "2 bolt" or "3 bolt"? because there are two bolts that bolt the engine-side mount to the body-side mount but there are 3 bolts the bolt the body-side of the mount to the body.. Which set of bolts am I to count?

my mount: 1997 b18b in a 1996 civic

Upgrade the mount with something Billet/Urethane or you will blow it again. That mount was meant for a D motor. B family requires something a little more sturdy

the 2 or 3 bolt reffers to the bolts on the engine side
yours appears to be 2 bolt

Its a two Bolt post mount. FYI the post mount is the blue bracket coming off your engine
