Imho, your case means either diy R&R or spending a chunk of cash for someone else's labor. Do you have the basic sets of hand tools: metric combo wrenches, 15, 17, 22 mm sockets and a floor jack, couple big screw drivers and blocks for the tires so you can get under it? After that, minimum would be a new jug, set of rings, sealant or upper set of gaskets. I believe you can do it without dropping the motor, but I always did because I am big and somewhat obese.

How are you at lying on the cold, possibly damp ground for the day it would take? At my best it was a 4 hour job, but that was at least 10years ago
