They don't sell the blade by itself. So therefore there would be no powder or cleaning step because the entire assembly was being swapped with a new one.
If he (or a tech) is using generic parts, and clanging just the blade and not the whole assembly (which is what I do--they work well) then absolutely it needs to be powdered (unless it came pre-powered, like the ones I get) and the assembly needs to be cleaned.
An assembly costs $130-ish, a blade costs $10-ish... So it is a no-brainer for anyone capable of doing it. Though even at $130, it isn't a TERRIBLE price considering how long they last.
