Earth cable to chassis at engine mount

[taylormj4]

Been looking at removing and cleaning up earths and found a large-gauge earth cable joined to one of the offside engine mount bolts.

The bond has even been fitted to the bolt head end of the engine mount bolt so to remove the earth cable, would require complete removal of an engine mount bolt.

Is this the normal location for an earth bond to be terminated (i.e. at the engine mount)?

Can a single engine mount bolt be removed without supporting the engine, to clean up this earth cable connection? Or is that a bad idea?

Im struggling to remember if it was originally there on on a bolt on the engine timing cover.
I would leave it alone or just cut it off and add a new ground from the chassis to a starter motor bolt.
