Likely to be a worn spigot bush (have seen that one before), if the auto one is bigger than the manual one then that's an issue. Other than that could be an input shaft bearing issue.

Balance shaft vibration seems odd. I had mine disconnected because it made a rattle because the bearing has seized slightly at some point and was blue. It never vibrated though and only has a slightly noticeable vibe now at 110kph.

Need a bit more info eg, are the vibes at while accelerating? If yes then it's likely to be the centre bearing.

Vibrates in neutral or in gear anytime the revs are past 2000rpm

Might sound silly but it's not coils is it? They will make it vibe.

Condition of the rubber, does it wobble when the engine is running...

Didnt think of spigot bush if auto one is bigger then that quite possible is the issue
