Replaced both mounts. Driver's side was more collapsed than the passenger side but I think what really caused the hose to get sawn thru was the fact that the center inner metal portion of the passenger side mount has almost completely separated from the rubber. Under the right torque conditions I'm pretty sure it would allow the right side mount mount arm to rise up and the left side of the engine drop down, putting the PS belt on to the hose.
