You didn't say what year 996. From what I understand, 99-01 cars had a higher failure rate but the IMS is easy to change. 02-on had an improved (by the factory) IMS but you can't change it without opening the motor ($$$). BTW, $12k sounds kinda high for the work you described, especially if it's a sub 50k car with no major current issues. And while the engine is out, don't forget the AOS as well.
