Welcome.. Interesting info... the shop that provided this should be capable of identifying any out of specification areas or items.. What prompted the need for the frame check? Was this a Body shop?

The body mounts, engine, and trans mounts breaking aren't necessarily a surprise. They're just rubber and at a certain point, they will move when the rest of it that's bolted together stops quickly. I had my transmission mount slide when I was in an accident. Similar deal though- bumper took most of the brunt and the only damage was a small crinkle in the tip of the hood. No air bag deployment though because the jeep headlight area never touched anything else.
I'd follow your gut and measure your suspension and steering off of known similar points on the vehicle. That should tell you if the axle is square under the vehicle (though usually they'll throw a wheel alignment in after an accident just to be sure). Glad to hear you're alright though.
