I take it you're on about the engine conversion mounts?

As I understand it, type 2 is any shell that had a 16v engine in it or had power steering. Type 1 is for 8v engines.

Well the answer is still the same. Any 16v Corsa or any Corsa that has power steering.

type two mounts are weak as piss, iv snapped one while driving and its not nice. if its small block and non p/s or lecky p/s why not use a conversion chassis leg plate and type1 type rubber and put a gearbox mount on that side... my old x18xe1 had that on with epas
