The rubber is probably just to allow slight tilting as the engine swings. BTW, one can live fine without the shock dampers. I understand they were mainly to stop a big shudder when the engine turns off. Such behavior could scare away the rich customers these cars sought.

Without the shock dampers I suspect you will wear out your motor mounts much sooner that with shock dampers.
