Inside the engine compartment, what is that round rubbery thing about 3 to 4" in diameter that is to the left of the engine? (soft on top when I push on it) I have never seen anything like this in my other cars. TIA!~

What you're talking about is attached to the top of the motor mount, and it's there to absorb some of the vibration that may occur in the mount.

It's just an engine vibration dampener.
