what happened to mine was the rubber cleanly separated from the metal part of the mount. You couldn't tell by just looking at it because it is under vertical downward pressure while just sitting.

It's when you give it gas, and the engine torque lifts the rear, that the sound is generated.

two ways to check that I can think of.

1) actually remove the rear mount and check it, or

2) carefully jack up the transmission and see if the mount separates. the "carefully" part is there so you don't induce a failure in the mount by forcing it apart. if you choose the latter, also be careful of where you jack it up (at the rear edge of the pan?)...also might want some cushioning material between the jack and the transmission.
