Compare the weights of the old and the new dryers. The new one probably is much lighter. That means you need to install the new one, because the old one is loaded with crud and moisture.

most manuals recommend that you replace the accumulator whenever you replace the compressor.

The accumulator is a component in a compressor system that acts as a storage tank for liquid refrigerant.

Why do you keep getting metal in your 2007 Malibu ac filter?

More than likely the metal is coming from the compressor. Replace the compressor along with the accumulator/receiver dryer and orifice tube/expansion valve. It is difficult to flush all of the metal out of the system but you must try. Any metal left in the system will eventually destroy the new compressor.


Why does air blow out of the accumulator instead of sucking the air in with the compressor engaged?

Assuming that nothing has been changed you're not looking at the accumulator. The aluminum cylinder on the output side of the compressor is a muffler designed to prevent hammering from the compressor being audible in the passenger compartment.
