$3,200 does sound steep, but messing up the engine while doing the repair could put you in a lot worse shape. Are you absolutely sure that the leak is from the cover and not a cam plug or another spot?

The tools that JFP is talking about can be found for $100 to $500 depending on your taste. Still, I'd be hesitant to DIY this without a clear understanding of the entire process.


Edit: I just noticed the the shipping cost for the one pictured is $500
Watch out for that. There are others available for around that price, without the silly shipping cost. Shop Carefully.
