WT and NT are the same, engine mount wise.

Not as far as I am aware - the rubber mount is physically the same.

Is there any difference in the frame pieces that connect it from the chassis to the block

See build threads on G16 engine conversion for Sierra utes or maruti. Pics of one liter chassis with 1.3 mounts welded on. Have seen some very doggy adapter plates to use existing chassis mounts but your mod plate engineer will not pass it

This is going to take a very long time if you ask one question at a time.
The rubber mount is the same WT/NT/1.0 The engine side brackets are completely different between 1.0 and 1.3 The chassis brackets are completely different between 1.0 and 1.3.
It is possible to make adapter plates to make the 1.0 chassis brackets work with a 1.3 engine, but they are quite large brackets. I helped Christover with this many years ago.
