I went to Hans (BMW Hucky)

I went to Hans (BMW Hucky) and got the correct front engine mount bolt in stainless. I'm so glad he lives about 5 miles from me. Yes, all four take 12mm nuts. 19mm wrench.......... He had no idea what the previous owner had going on there.

Thanks for the replies........
