Default Engine Mount Question

Just spent the afternoon trying to get to the bottom of the annoying fault on our XC90 D5 (goes into limp home mode with fault code ECM6805) and I think I have found the cause - leaking engine mounts.
The front doesn't hold vacuum at all and the rear will build up a vacuum on my tester but leaks off after a couple of seconds. I tested the hoses as well and they weren't the best so have replaced with some silicone hose I had in the garage.
Now the front mount will obviously need replacing but on the rear mount I noticed there is a small rubber bung which the right angled adapter for the vac hose sits in had perished and split. Anyone know if this bung can be purchased separately or will I have to buy a rear mount as well? I have looked on VIDA but can only find the hose and the mount, no mention of the right angled adapter or the bung

Try an aquatic supplier - They do all sorts of air hose adaptors/fittings in various bores, usually pennies...
