Nova's and Corsa's don't have chassis'... But, they do use different bodywork and gearbox mounts.

so 2.0 16v mounts for a nova would be no good in a corsa then

Nope, you need a 2.0 Corsa engine mount and a gearbox spacer (or modify the rear gearbox mount). You can get the mounts for about £50 though - they are easy enough to make though if your handy at welding and cutting steel.

Or if there is no room on the front jacking point for a trolly jack and axle stand you can use a scissor jack to support the car while you swap the trolly jack with the axle stand. Not difficult really...
