The two-flange lower mount is for motors with the older type vibration damper in front. The one-flange mount is for newer motors with the side-mounted vibration dampers. I guess there is nothing wrong with mixing the systems, but it appears the result is a stiffer suspension system. Never tried it myself.
BTW, different strokes for different folks. I would have done it slightly different. I would have left it clamped to the stand and leaving the port side acorn nut attached, remove the starboard side cover first. That leaves the motor hanging in the port side cover. Then remove the acorn nut and simply lift the motor out.
