My mechanic, who I trust, advised that the oill I've seen on my driveway is coming from a leaking front engine seal. Says seal needs to be replaced, but engine has to be pulled out, resulting in considerable labor.

Cost is approximately $400. Does that sound reasonable?

Thanks.

Doesn't sound out of line to me.
