I've read on several sites that the mounts on these cars are chronic failure points with enough age/mileage.
Thanks for the post and the pic.
My '06 Focus is at 90k and so far has been fairly trouble free. One split halfshaft boot, one valve cover gasket, a new set of plugs and a serpentine belt tensioner so far. Not too bad.
My 2007 Focus has been very reliable as well. Alternator, serp belt, Front rotors and pads, and now the MM. Actually this is the top view which is hidden by the other part of the MM. Can't see this side until removed.
