Mrbmwx5, that's just to remove it. 1 hour to remove gasket and clean surface. 1 hour so far reinstalling. I expect at least 2 more hours. and I haven't cleaned the bottom of the engine. I'm thinking of taking it to a shop for degreasing maybe treat my self and get it professionally detailed.

I'm figuring 8 hrs start to finish. broken up over 3 days. I can see why the shop wanted so much. I got a quote for the valve cover gasket and canister gasket of close to $2000.
