I can do it in three hours, on my back, with hand tools; so a shop should be able to manage it faster. I'm not really sure what O-rings they want to bill you for, maybe the one O-ring where the pick-up tube seats in the oil pan, but $20 seems a bit (lot) much for that. All-in-all, this doesn't seem ridiculous compared to some quotes I've seen. Realistically, this is a two hour job with a maximum of $20 in material costs, so an extra hour padded to account for unforeseen circumstance is reasonable.
