When I lifted the car and move the front tires clockwise and counterclockwise a noise is coming from underneath as well the whole engine and transmission move with it. I took some video I know the noise of grinding is coming from the exhaust the metal part but the movement of the engine is what worry me. I took two videos the one with the jack in the front is when both tires on the air. The other video is with the driver side tire on air only. Thank you in advance.

Hello, I'm Danny.

It seems to be you might be having issues with the motor mounts.They are an insulated hard rubber/metal mount to cushion the engine to where it mounts to the cars frame.They due wear out after time due to normal wear and tear also vibration.Here is a few tutorials showing what is involved:
