V12 vs V8, Service Costs

I ordered some dealer service procedures software and it was pretty common to see instructions for a repair start with remove engine (I think it is hilarious that they just put it in as one step, no big deal or anything)
(quoted from another thread)

Now that brings up an interesting question I am now wondering about. Taking out the engine entails about how much work and cost? 2-3 service hours at $95-$125 per hour, so overall $300-$400 additional charge just to service/repair the V12 vs the V8?
