What is this?! Empty mount is normal?
Last night I checked my differential and couldn't believe what I saw! The rear plate with two bushings had the right bushing missing. I could even see the threads. What do you all think? Note, I had been hearing a sound every time i let off the throttle so suspected the differential.
Note: The bottom caption should read \"Right side is differential with bushing missing".
Right side bushing gone and can see threads
Left side has bushing, right is empty and visible threads
Just a pic of differential

I am reading that this is normal but I find it hard to believe: https://mbworld.org/forums/cls-coupe-c219/531055-missing-bolt-bushing-rear-axle.html

Is it somewhere in this part diagram? Maybe number 5? https://www.mbpartsus.com/a/Mercedes-Benz_2006_CLS500-Base/_53894_5982006/AXLE--DIFFERENTIAL/5720675.html

Progress!
I believe I have finally tracked down the potentially missing part number.
The bushing part number is 2113511142, and can be seen at this website which indicated TWO are required:

It is attached to the rear suspension crossmember which is part number 2113507508:
https://mercedespartscenter.com/parts/2006/Mercedes-Benz/CLS500/Base/?siteid=215720&vehicleid=186268&diagram=5720675&di agramCallOut=11
The crossmember is part number 1 and the suspect bushing is number 5.
The question remains whether or not TWO or ONE bushing are required?
