The rear main seal is about $17.00 for the part and 5.5 hours for install, I don't know your local labor rates, but that's the flat rate for the job.
And labor for the oil pan R&R is 1.4 hours, but there is no listing for the pan gasket in Alldatapro.

Fix the oil pan seal. Live with the rear main seal leak. It could cost over $500 to do the rear main seal. Contact Nissan about any recalls.

Don't listen to these people... the engine does not have to be pulled to do a rear main seal... the pan gasket and rear seal can be done at the same time ...yes the transmission needs to be dropped... $ 225 labor and parts...MAX!

WELL TO START THE OIL PAN GASKET IS NOT YOUR PROBLEM BECAUSE THERE IS NO OIL PRESSURE IN THE OIL PAN BUT REAR SEAL WELL THERE IS A LOT LABOR TO REPLACE REAR MAIN SEAL THE TRANSMISSION HAS TO COME OUT THAT NORMA LY RUNS LIKE 6. HOURS OFF LABOR COST BUT IF YOU CAR IS STICK SHIFT I WOULD REC TO REPLACE CLUTCH OR WHAT THEY CALL COMBO KIT AND TELL THEM REPLACE MY REAR MAIN SEAL SOME SHOPS WONT CHARGE YOU OR WILL CHARGE A SMALL FEE BECAUSE THE TRANS IS OFF ALREADY ITS SAFE TO SAY YOU KILL TWO BIRDS WITH ONE SHOT

Really depends on what is leaking. The alternator is in a lot of places on different cars. If it's a standard small block chevy type setup with the alternator being on the top it would sound like a valve cover leak to me which is pretty easy to fix. would just need a new gasket and a little time.

The engine needs to be pulled to do both of these. Very labor intensive. Try some stop leak or just get a new car or keep adding oil. But if I were you I would get a second opinion first.

If you would have been here in Pakistan, It would not have costed you more than $100. But I suppose it will be pretty expensive there.
