Use the one off of the donor car, or one off of an 8v Corsa. No need making one cos Vauxhall have already made them for ya...

you will also need to modify the rear gearbox mount so that it clears everything

When fitting a 2.0 16v to a non PAS or 8v Corsa, you don't need the front engine mount. That comes straight from the Cossvaux advert on TV...

i think somones talking bollox
i think what you are thinking about is the Vauxhall engine mount block which moves the mounting point unwards as the rubber mounting point on the 8v sits lower on the chas leg, so the bodywork mount moves it.
with ever 2lt 16v coverstion u need the engine mount for the drivers side.
as for the others u use standard passenger mount and standard gearbox mount,
you mod the gearbox one so u dont need the spacer and you dont need to extend the linkage
