I have a leaking Oil Filter Housing Gasket. 08 328i N51 engine.
I watched few DIY videos - it involves removing the air filter box and then there are 3 bolts. It does require a long extender but other than looks simple.

I have been quoted anywhere from $350 - $650 for labor cost.

Am I missing something? Have people here done OFHG replacements?
Does it require more changes than just removing housing and replacing gasket?

if not why so much labor charges?

It's pretty easy, I did mine and took me just 15-30 min.
