The cost to replace a timing cover seal typically ranges from $300 to $800, depending on the make and model of the vehicle and the labor rates in your area. This price often includes both parts and labor, as accessing the timing cover can require significant disassembly of the engine components. Always check with a trusted mechanic for a more accurate estimate based on your specific situation.
I just had the timing cover gasket on my 2000 Ford Taurus replaced...Cost of Repair was $513

The year, make, model and engine info would help.
It should cost no more than $350, if u also replace the timing belt, which i recommend. The total w both water pump and timing belt should cost $375, and that's a padded estimate.
For my '88 Civic, it cost me right at $180 to replace back in '97.
Its called a valve cover gasket kit and the job should cost about 300.00 Parts and labor.
It should cost about 75 dollars to replace a timing belt. The belt itself cost about 25 dollars but you are looking at around 50 for labor. So if you do it yourself you can do it for 25 bucks!
It would cost about 260 dollars.

It is under the timing cover and driven by the timing belt. Anytime you change one it is best to replace both as far as cost is the same.
Once you reach 100K you're running on or at the limit of life expectancy of the timing chain, chain tension-er, cam chain gear and crankshaft chain gear. All four should be replaced as a set. You will also need to replace timing cover gasket and the crankshaft front cover seal. Cost of parts < $75.00 but not an easy job.
A town and country should have a chain.
