It is easy to do.... Not as easy as the valve cover gasket, but not much worse.
It should get about an hour of shop time. Actually, I can do it in an hour and I'm not a mechanic. My dad (who was a really good mechanic) used to call me Mr. Slow every time I worked on my cars. $477 is a major ripoff.

A friend is going to do it all with parts and labor for $100... unless there is more involved when he gets in there.

Oh, wait, cam seal, too? As in the front one? It makes much more sense for that price if so. That's actually cheap (for a dealer, at least0 if so. Are you sure? Make sure it's leaking first. You can pull the upper timing cover and check for oil around the camshaft gear in the front. It's in the upper left.
