I went ahead and had my mechanic do it. took him maybe 3 or 4 hours to do the whole thing, including pulling the heat exchanger, replacing the seal and the belt, and fixing the timing. I'm glad he did it, he found a rat nest under the shroud on top of #3 while he was in there, and another one in the heat exchanger. Plus he was able to drain a lot of oil from that exchanger.
Now the car runs great and doesn't smoke or leak at all!
