Buying a used blower

Going to look at a used, stock m62 and an intake manifold. What should I be looking for as far as red flags? Supposedly has ~160km on it, stock pulley and such, what are some serious warning signs i should be watching for on either the m62 or the IM?

Buying a used blower

Check the condition of the rotors of the sc. Check for cracks around the bolt holes on the intake mani

Check rotors, shaft play, & listen for any rattles when you spin the pulley or hub by hand.

What am I looking for? I've read that the coating coming off is pretty common and unavoidable so am I just looking for major scuffs and gouges? If it's bad should I buy anyways if I can get a killer deal or just run away?

A few small scratches on the edge of the rotor packs, nothin major, coating was still intact on the rotors so I bought it. Thanks for your help guys.

I know it's late so if a 160k supercharger was fine, if you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay? I need a price to base mine off of. I'm buying a 60k full kit and going to paint and build it then replace mine
