Oil everywhere

While driving today i noticed a burning oil smell. Stopped and look and oil is all over the place under the driver side. Stopped at a tire place and had them put the car on a lift to see if engine oil was leaking. They came back and said it appears the engine mount went bad. I had no clue these were liquid filled. Has anyone with th '11 and up have them go bad?

Hydra-bushing in the control arm is antifreeze, dont know about the motor mount, odd it would rupture.

Alright good thing i didn't listen to the shop that looked yesterday. Took it to the dealer and it wasn't some mounts. Somehow my oil filter was punctured. It could have happened during the "Frankenstorm" driving to work down some terrible roads.
