I need to know:
Is there or is there not a vacuum fitting on the front motor mount?
VIN number 4T1BF28B2YU022042

Toyota Dealer's information:
Part No.: 12361-0A050
Insulator, engine mounting, front (dealer).

Online search results are confusing. They show me two front mounts, with and without vacuum fitting, fit my car.

A mechanic who will do the replacement is not sure which one to order.

So please help me to avoid this confusion.

Tell him to look at it to see which one was used on your application. Very often there are multiple versions of a part and you have to go by what is there. If he diagnosed it as being collapsed, he should have seen which style you have. If he was not aware he needed to know that, just take the car back and let him look.
