Is the front snout seal leaking? You may have problems inside the snout with the coupler or bearings. Usually, you only need to repair or replace the snout, not the entire S/C.

You can replace that front bushing/bearing- the noise is usually fron the fins hitting the housing-- the bushing is on-line....

Are you talking about the supercharger, or the alternator? I have never seen "fins" on a supercharger.
