I couldn't find that insulator which goes in the UCA mount either when I rebuilt mine. The parts manual calls the mount a 'front upper control arm support, PN 11515744', which was only available as part of the UCA. They list a bushing used with the UCA, but it's the bushing used with the bolts which hold the UCA to the support.

I didn't use any. The one which was in it fell out because it was beat to hell and I couldn't get it to stay in. I just put a lot of marine grease in the top of the shock to try to mitigate the shock nut from rusting.

You could probably find a used set off ebay but otherwise leave it off as some cars didn't have them and no one has been able to find a manufacturer for them. Pack it with marine grease and drill a small hole from the engine bay above it so you can pump more in if necessary and it will be fine with just the bottom isolator
