1. Is his quote high?
2. Is this easy....something I can do in the driveway?
3. Where do I get an oil pan? I did a google search but the prices range from $80 to $212 and I don't know which brand/store/website to use.

Or, do I have any other options?

Thanks
holy shit that is high...you should be able to pick up a pan for cheap and it takes like 30 minutes to throw the new one on

can get a new one for 80 bucks on ebay and a gasket for it is like 15 bucks.
