Similar thing happened to me on my Nova years back outside the Golden Gate.
Motor mount collapsed, caused engine/drive misalignment and spun coupler-towed in at 125.00 per hr by Sea Tow @ 5mph for 6 hours...ouch...Wife still reminds me on the expense not including yanking motor.
Good luck hope it works out 4u
