Glad to hear that you have found the probable cause of the driveshaft popping out of the inner driver. It took seven months of hell, four garages and five replaced tripod joints before the cause of my tripod joint coming out was located as being due to broken engine mounts!
My experience suggests that you should replace both left and right engine mounts. I wouldn't skimp. Even if one of them seems OK it is probably only a matter of time before it goes as well. Also, be careful to check that the brackets that attach to the mounts are OK. On mine one of them had cracked.
