no, you dont unless you somehow ruin the stock gasket in the process (which is hard to do as the stock one is metal.) i have removed and installed many blowers on these cars and retained the stock gasket.

you can reuse it but i would go ahead and replace it just to avoid any problems. yes it is metal, but its pretty flimsy metal so if it bends at all its useless. i would just replace it to avoid complications later on

No you dont need to replace it unless you bend it while removing the supercharger. You can get them from Cobaltperformanceparts.com for like 28 bucks.

honestly it depends what kind of shape it's in. no one can answer the question without seeing it. you'll know if it needs to be replaces though.

I have reused mine about 4 times with no issues.
