There are 4 nuts and screws holding the motor mounting bracket to the bottom of the dash. Under the windscreen seal there are mounting screws for each wiper wheelbox.

Which part is loose? the wiper motor or the wiper pivot to body mount?

Hello , it seems that the wiper motor is loose in the metal "box" that is bolted under the dash . How is it secured to the "box"?

With bolts from the motor through the box. If you feel up under the dash, you should be able to feel them. It might be easier to remove the glovebox/dash section adjacent to the motor to get at it.
