Are these engine mounts bolted correctly?

 I was wondering about the 1 long bolt passing thru both tabs on the block. I was thinking maybe it would be better to use 2 shorter bolts?  1st picture is drivers side, 2nd is passenger.

no  youll brake the ears off your block like that  ,  those top bolts take a bot and nut on each side

Fine threads with locking nuts too. It shows clearly in the FSM the configuration needed. What year?

RH (Passenger) Side pic uses 3 (see pic).

Drivers side does use 1 long one that goes through the welded tube in the mount...also mounts the tab on the dipstick tube.
All threads are fine with locking nut regardless of length. Frank Badalson (and probably others) sell a correct kit with bolts, nuts and washers.
