Default Supercharger question for ya guys

I blew head gaskets twice while running my blower. second time the car starting acting up one day with hard starts but would run. then after about two weeks trying to figue out the problem and my buddy scaned it. a puff of steam and antifreeze dumped out the exhaust. now i have a Vortech blower, stripped the whole motor found antifreeze in the blower feedline of course. blower sounded perfectly fine during scanning any everything. i dumped all of the oil out of the blower i could and added new oil to it and it has sat for a year now. now are the bearing,gears,seals bad does anyone think? a member on here gave me a link to a company that sells replacement parts. parts for this thing are not cheap and i would not have the right tools to install or set stuff back.

what do you think?

I would say you should be fine, I would tear it down and have a look make sure everything seems ok.
