Yes, but the system will not hold a charge now. I would replace the receiver/drier automatically along with all seals. Seals that are shot, a very likely possibility, mean the system is already opened up. Minnesota is a climate with vast temperatures and high humidity. I would replace this in my car. I replaced anything in doubt when I repaired mine.

I don't think we have established that it will not hold a charge at this point.
The receiver dryer should not be installed until everything is set up to do the vacuum IMMEDIATELY after it is installed.
