They are attached to the engine rather than the motor mount. I do have a layer of 1/8" red rubber strip for some vibration reduction between the brackets and the cores. While I am now aware the convention is to mount the cores on a non-vibrating surface such as engine mount or firewall mine are mounted to the engine. Hopefully since my lines run from the engine to the cores/oil cooler they all vibrate together and in sync and not out of phase {:>) . I have a total of 300 hours runtime on this set up. Early on as Rusty mentioned I did have the cores develop leaks because( I believe) I had 90 deg fittings and heavy fittings and hose hanging off of that 90 deg fitting. Since I have eliminated the 90 deg fitting and gone to a straight vertical fitting, I have had no problem.
