Coolant System/Radiator Issues

I just recently purchased a 2002 4.6 with 89k on it. It's been leaking coolant slowly, so I took it to an indy. This is what he said needed to be replaced, and his prices. Do you think this is fair, or should I look elsewere? It seems high to me. Is there any chance of repairing the leaks, instead of spending almost $2,000 to replace everything? I'm not very mechanically inclined, but can do minor/moderate repairs...
