Default replacing motor mount w/ after market parts - is it ok?

I have replaced my SL1 96 upper motor mount with an after market part.
Since the motor mount was badly collapsed, I couldn't compare it with the
new one. The bolt holes ligned up but the bracket dimensions differed
making me wonder if the engine was on the same level it should be
originally. I'm concerned if there's a discrepancy on the tolerances, is
there a possibility any moving parts could be damaged? The car is running
great right now, but I want to avoid any future damage this may cause. Any
input on this will be welcome!

Didn't someone post that the aftermarket was a thinner or lighter mount than
the factory's?
