From memory it's a stud from top mount. So drilling it isn't a option. Simply get a new top mount.

Somone snapped a bolt on one of my top mounts and it ended up causing me no end of grief in the end, ask Mr Kindon.
I think you looking at a new mount mate, dont compromise.

I didny think they were sides but just front and back Wink

I'd say sensibly driven should be ok but that's just my opinion and driving it's at your own risk Smile
