Is there any chance that section of the floor/transmission tunnel has been replaced at some point? Some of those lines look a bit odd to me, maybe strip the floor back, see whats under the paint. It's not a usual place for rust, but dumber things have happened, could have been cut out to fit a different tranmission at some stage perhaps and a repair afterward? If the black looking paint/coating, is body sound deadener it should rub back with turps and a stainless steel dish scrubber and a bit of scraping. If its someting else stripper should get you through for just that section.
Btw strikes me the site should have a pic of the original mounts if they are not on here already. I just tried to post some, but for some reason I couldnt upload, my computer jammed twice - its getting old, lol, still on Win XP, I can try again later. Perhaps somebody else can easily find an easy reference pic for tidyvan? I'll have to reinstall Mozilla to upload I think.
