The seller of this vehicle assures me this engine mount is brand new and cannot be broken, but this doesnt look right.

Yea, its not right.

I just got a new one in to replace mine that was doing the exact same thing.

The new one doesn't move at all.

I'll get pictures of worn out bushings as I'm doing all of them this weekend.

Nope, not new. Rather trashed, time to replace as the get loose, torn

Buy the round, earlier one, 99-2004, (Bolts into the same holes). Those you can SEE if it's worn/broken or not.
Volvo came up with this hidden one so the owner would not go running back to the dealer while under warranty.
Neither usually lasts much more than 50-60K miles
