Emergency diagnostic needed: Motor mounts! 200

guys,
I'm planning on a long weekend trip to zion national park, this brick is bound for glory! so I'm changing my oil and it feels like my oil filter is very close to the motor mount or chasis. There is less than a finger width between the bottom of the fram ( i know i should use a better filter) oil filer and which-ever part is close on the bottom. After removing the oil filer I can see the motor mount its intact, but the rubber is pretty slanted. hard for me to describe.

am I being paranoid, or is this a sign of impending doom? does it need to be replaced before the trip? i don't have time to do it myself, but maybe my wife can have it done tomorrow. how much should this cost?

the estimated time of departure is about 20 hours from now.

thanks in advance,

darkstar
