Make sure your understand what he meant by “front.” The one toward the front of the car is the left side of the engine, and these rarely go bad IME. The front of the engine is the right side of the engine compartment, and those go bad more ofren.

If you need the hydraulic one, bite the bullet and buy OEM. I tried a third party mount. While it bolted in place, there was not a reasonable way to get the vacuum lines connected.
You need the hydraulic one if you see vacuum lines going into the mount. Also this is a relatively easy replacement.

Got this one not too long ago from McGeorge Toyota. Had to argue with them a bit because they don't sell Lexus parts but everything I saw online said it was the same part. Cost $152. Came with hoses and the switching valve already attached. good luck!
This is the one that goes between the engine and the radiator area at the front of the car.
