The springs are contacting because they have worn through the spring-cage. This happens as a result of excessive movement that leads to greater wear than is expected and it typically relative to one of the following:
-a damaged or worn pilot bearing or front transmissions bearing
-a damaged input-shaft
-a transmission/bellhousing that doesn't have the dowels in place that help center it when it mates to the motor
-damaged or missing bolts
-a damaged engine or transmission mount.
It is worth noting that you appear to have a good deal of wear on the disc so this could also be the result of normal wear and usage (dependent on driving style and usage type) that has happened over time.
Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks!!

With the transmission removed (motor is still bolted to the motor mounts and motor mounts bolted to frame) should i be able to move the engine up by pushing up on the rear of the motor. when i push up on the rear of the motor i can move the engine up quite a bit. i do this and look at the mounts and it seems like the engine is pivoting on the mounts, does this mean my motor mounts are shot?

Having a damaged pilot and shaft could have easily caused noise and increase movement (and spring-cage wear). I am not sure how much movement you are talking about relative to the motor. If it appears to be excessive it probably is. Especially if you can get this to happen by hand.
