Don't know about yours, but both my 88 and my son's 91 has 3 O-rings in
that adapter assembly: 2 in the base that mounts to the block and one on
the hollow bolt that holds it on. Make sure you get them all and use a
film of oil to lube them so that they can slip a bit as you compress them.

Re: Oil Leak resulting from motor mount repl.
 
3 O-rings? Mine is a '92, so I can only imagine it's the same setup.
I'm almost 100% sure it's one or all of those - I definitely didn't
think about O-rings when I re-tightened it (at around 1am).

Thanks Will

O rings are so cheap, why risk it?
If you put a new one on then you shouldn't have to tear it all apart again
because it tirned out to have a nick or a crack in it that yo couldn't see.
