Motor Mounts Question (manual/auto)

Hi there,
I couldn't find the definite answer from researching.

So I'm aware there are 3 motor mounts (Front, Rear, and passenger side).

I have a manual transmission and it seems like the motor mounts are different for different transmission?
When I was looking through the RockAuto, it indicated (Automatic) (Manual Trans).
The funny thing was it says "Front Mount (Auto) , Front Mount (Manual)" but someone from this forum said "Front is the same for all transmission".

So here are my questions
Q1. Which is the only motor mount that is different from auto and manual? (Rear?)
Q2. I thought there are only 3 motor mounts but somebody says 5 instead of 3 (Rear upper and rear lower, and driver side). How many motor mounts?
Q3. Would there be a problem if I use motor mount for automatic transmission on my manual trans car?
Q4. What is the difference between automatic and manual trans motor mounts?

Thank you for reading.

This simple logic will quicken your search.
Identify the engine mounts you need for your 6-speed. They should be #8; 11; 13 on the link below:
Identify the transmission mounts you need for your 6-speed. They appear to be #22 & 23.

If you go with aftermarket 'mounts' (from RA), the easiest way to narrow your search is to search on the specific OEM part #'s listed for the numbers above. You may find that you cannot locate an equivalent aftermarket mount. If that's the case, you may have to spend the $$ for OEM Acura mounts. If you find that the manual mount shares the same OEM part # with an automatic mount than that mount can be used on either.
Good Luck!

Thank you very much.
How did you find that engine motor mount section?

hen I went to the website before and tried to look for the motor mounts, I could not find the category so I had to manually search it.

I am trying to look for the automatic motor mount category so that I can compare side by side.

You have to change the vehicle to the automatic 'base' TL. There you will find the auto mounts under the 'body/airconditioning' section (leftside):
