That's one hackjob welding, if you want to call that. I bet it will come off with a few whacks of a BFH.

Just unbolt it and use a chisel/dremel to break through the crap welds. My car used to have an H22 in it and that bracket is supposed to just be bolted on.

Assuming they didn't break the welded nuts on the inside of the frame (leading to them having to weld the bracket on in the first place) - NO you do not need to reweld anything. Your new B-Series transmission side mount will bolt right into the chassis.
