No..... you should not need to touch the motor mount to get that cover off... just take yourtime... move the heater core tubes inward toward the plenum and the cover will come off just fine. No, you don't need head studs. You may take a peek at some rod and main bearing to see how they look or check what your oil pressure was...

Nope, can't just replace those fasteners, everything would have to be remachined, line bored and resized...
