I'm talking the cheapest way to get it working without any air leaks. Everything else on it is in good condition.

It's the same amount of work and parts for a plastic or a wooden. The keys have to come off to do it.
You may find a shop in a small town that does "playing condition" for about $70 but a full repad will run $100-$150 anywhere in the US.
If it's an odd system (Oehler or Albert) then it may run a touch more.
The very cheapest way would be to find a student repair tech and let him use it as a lesson. Careful though - make sure he has a teacher that can bail him out if he gets confused.

I think you would be better off calling your local music store to find out.

Be careful about the places on Ebay that charge only $25 to repad a clarinet. Most will not do metal clarinets (I've checked) and they will charge a LOT for shipping. I had mine re-padded by a very good technician and it was around $150, this included new pads and corks. Look for someone in your area first- if you send it away I wouldn't trust someone who's price is under $100
