removing oil pan question

suggestions please...

OK, I had to undo both engine mounts to jack up the motor enough to get at all the oil pan bolts. So here's my problem: The driver's mount poped out of it's hole and to the left and won't fall back into place when I lower the motor. Other than trying to mentally wish it into place with my special powers I'm not sure what to do cause it's not movin any closer to that hole.

thanks guys.

Yeah, that happened to me to. You gotta take off both bolts from both sides so the mount is free, then you put the lower hole in and attempt to lower it enogh so you can get both of them in (even if it's at an angle) then lower it down.
