Do you think that there are any participants in Masters Swimming that use illegal supplements?

"Illegal supplements" is a strange choice of words. In general, supplements are not illegal. Drugs may be illegal if (1) they are prescription drugs that have been obtained without a prescription, or (2) they are drugs that have not been approved by the FDA for use even with a prescription. Since there are plenty of non-swimmers who use drugs that fall in the second category, I'd be surprised if masters swimming had no users of such drugs.
