YES... I have seen one, held it in my hands, cursed it, etc.  ;-)
It shouldn't be hard to tell if the balancer is good or bad.  It is either
attached and balanced or it has let loose from the rubber bonding at its
core and can be wiggled or turned independantly of the other pulleys.  If
yours is tight and can't be freely rotated or moved it is likely ok.  You
CAN tell this while it is on the car from underneath.
