I have a little issue. My rear frame mounts fell through the frame its self and im not 100% sure how to repair it. I didnt notice it visually. But rather when I changed my old shocks for new ones the ride stiffened up and the frame takes the slack now. When I hit a bump I get a bang coming from the rear. Like my spare tire is loose or something. But took a flash light and concluded that my mounts are busted.

Going have to lift the body off the frame, cut and grind away the bad metal, and weld in frame repair washers or patches depending on the extend of the damage.
 
I have a total of 4 mounts that broke off including both of the left rear mounts so I feel your pain 😢
 
The bigger issue you are going to have is the rot in the pan itself. I'd lay a 20$ down that your body mount bolt is frozen in it, or the mount diamond and its recess is completely gone....been there done that, seen it a hundred times.
