Depends on the damage. I have repaired minor marks/scores with industrial epoxy.
Stock 3-71 has no teflon. I have a fresh one on the shelf.

I agree- it depends on the damage. Blower Drive Service might be able to help.

You gotta love them little Roots blowers. I'm curious, what's it going on? Had a buddy who ran one on a Sportster. On the street.
