REPAIR TAB....LEGIT? 700 1991

I just received the happy news from the local Volvo dealer that my oil leaks are numerous and problematic. The following are the required repairs, along with respective prices therefor, that I was quoted. If there are experts among you who would be willing to provide me with a "price" critique, I would be most appreciative. Needless to say, I am mainly checking to see if we are talking "ball park" as opposed to a flat-out gouge. Thanks for your time.

1. Front engine seals; Flame trap cleanout;

replace timing belt......................$407

2. Distributor "O" Ring; valve gasket.......$135

3. Re-seal water pump.......................$107

or

Water pump ............................$198

P.S. - I was also pitched on new radiator hose ($98) and various other

services (e.g., brake pads a millimeter away from disaster) all

of which I summarily declined. Have made no decision yet as I

would love some expert input.
