Default I'm a very very lucky person!! Why is my engine still on one peice?

Well, I found out why I have a vacuum leak
It seems that one of the bolts that holds the supercharger on came loose and fell off. The only problem was that this bolt hold the SC to the intake manifold INSIDE the intake manifold!! So I really have no idea why my engine is still in one peice. The supercharger blades are a little banged up from the bolt being thrown around everywhere. When I took the intake manifold off I found the bolt resting on top of one of the intake valves! The valves seem fine though (I'm not really sure how!). When the bolt came loose, that is what caused the vacuum leak in the gasket. I'm very very lucky.

I've got pics posted here:
