I sent the pictures of the mystry mount to a Beech 18 restoration facility and the owner confirms the mount is not a Beech product and may be from a Cessna Airmaster or 195.
If anyone knows of someone with either of these aircraft, please forwad the pictures to them. We are all dying to know what this mount goes on.

They worked with several suppliers over the years but the sources have all since gone out of business. I know that there are a couple of guys trying to have new ones custom manufactured. I don't know what the few remaining T-50 owners are doing either. Fortunately the original isolators are pretty tough ... mine have to be over 20 yrs old and they still look fine. No cracking, dry rot, or separation. Hopefully they will last a while longer.
