AC compressor fell off, after year should I put it back on?

My AC compressor fell off on the highway last year, Or I should say the bolts fell out, compressor was left hanging by the lines. The AC worked when I got the car, then it didnt then I recharged it worked for a while then it quit again. I assume the freon leaked out due to the compressor being loose.

I plan to get the AC going again, the system has been open since last year. I would like to just replace the expansion valve and dryer and use the old compressor which was fine before it came unbolted. I bought the correct set of hardware tday at the PNP, what was on there was a mismatch of incorrect bolts. the system is 134 converted already. so what should I do to get it running again besides the 2 new parts? do you think the compressor will be OK? how can I clean it and reoil it? any help will be appreciated.
