Mac Pherson Grommit

Is there a grommet at the bottom of the mac pherson strut? Bentley's says nothing, but Haynes shows a picture of a rubber grommet.

I have some clunking that my mechanic says is due to out of round rear bushing brackets (due to a different inept local mechanic). I recently replaced struts, bushings and sway bar, so it probably is one of those three. Top strut nut is tight. I plan to replace the brackets and retorque everything, including the cross beam. If that's not it, then I'll have to go back into the strut tube, a job I'm not relishing.
