The time is approaching for me to change out my body mount bushings. A few of them are dry-rotted and cracking, and I have no clue how old they are.

Is there a recommendation on the specific type to use for the replacements? I really just want to replace them with the OEM ones, if possible. As far as I know they are the OEM/standard mounts. I have attached a pic for reference. If they don’t look OEM, please let me know.

Those are oem mounts. I know crown/omix ada/dorman makes a full set for not much money. You need to determine if your metal sleeves are reusable or if you want to replace everything.
 
I believe that Dorman are the current best option. I don’t believe that you’ll find the OE mounts as a complete assembly and what is available is extremely expensive.

For your 2005, the Dorman part numbers are in this thread: https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/should-i-buy-new-oem-body-mounts-when-doing-body-lift.22350/

When you remove the bolts, you get one chance to do so without creating additional work. If the bolt starts to spin, you’ll need to cut the tub. I don’t have a best advice approach to offer - Some have used an impact wrench with success. When I removed the bolts last spring to replace a few of the mounts, I soaked the bolts with penetrating oil for a couple of weeks then used heat and turned the bolts slowly back and forth until they were free.
