G55 - Supercharged?

Can VIN# tell you if your M113 is supercharged or not? Are there visual clues? Sorry for the noob questions.

2005+ is supercharged. You can also look for the blower on top of the engine. If it looks like a G500 it's not supercharged. If it looks like a w211 E55 it is.

Thank you! I read online that the '04 G55 was supercharged but I didn't believe mine was. I called 2 MB service departments, as you can guess, 1 said yes, the other said no. Seller also just confirmed "no".
