Doug,
No air can pass through a roots blower that isn't turning. So that had to be an empty case, with a carb hidden somewhere inside.

Actually,I had a 302 in a Mustang with a roots blower.I lost a belt and was forced to drive back to the hotel I was staying at .The air passing through the carb rotated the lobes very slowly .The car ran fine ( WAY down on power.)
The pulley turned very slowly.
