I've been looking for a bash guard for my bike recently, but my bike doesn't support the standard ISCG-05 mount. It only has 2 bolt mounts, one on the top right, and one on the bottom right (bolts circled in orange). Would be greatly appreciated if anyone could help me find a good bash guard that would fit, or at least let me know what type of mount it is. Thanks!

Find a friend with a 3d printer. I print my own bash guards, they hold up pretty well
Let’s go to first principles. Why do you think you need one?
You could always install a 2 chainring setup in the front, but grind down the largest chainring to act as a bash guard for the smaller one.
There’s probably a reason 2-bolt bashguards typically use the bottom two. I feel like by using the two mounting points you have would turn the bashguard into a lever and it would be a really easy way to crack the lower one.
How about something like the Wolf Tooth BashSpider and Camo chainring setup?
Those are not bash guard mounts. The only kind you can get are the kind that mounted the chain ring. Or bottom bracket mounted like MRP: https://mrpbike.com/products/xcg
SRAM makes bash plates that integrate with the chainring. The image I quickly found shows the GX, but they make them for GX, X0, and XX
