The front mount is broken as a result of your main motor mounts sagging. 
This is not at all unusual. To repair you really should replace all 
three. This is really more of a torque mount. It unbolts quite easily 
and has to be removed anyway.
The serpentine belt looks like it may be offset 1 rib. Don't put it back 
on that way...
