this vehicle needs to have the valve cover gaskets replaced and the oil leaking has gotten into the spark plug tube and now one injector needs to be replaced as well as the plug wires.

Prices will vary with different areas of the country, different parts suppliers and different shop labor rates. It takes considerable local price research to develop an estimate. My suggestion would be to get a second opinion at a different shop.
