Those bolts hold the back plate onto the CHRA.

All 4 of them need to be there and torqued down properly in order to put pressure on the compressor seal. If you are missing a bolt or they are not torqued properly the compressor seal will not seal properly and it could cause it to leak.

I would try getting another bolt and tightening them all down. Then if it still leaks you might need a rebuild.
