I have a secondary air pump that works at home. I'll give it to you cheap ( it's about $350 new ). I got my heater valve for $48. Changing the pump is a piece of cake...20 minutes TOPS, including lifting the car and removing the lower cover and putting it all back together.... changing the heater valve is still easy though more time consuming ( I took about 40 minutes on mine ).

for secondary air pump, relay & fuse box as well as
Heat changeover valve
& installation of my einsenmann exhaust ... does that seem reasonable?!
the exhaust is add-on so should take 20min.
I would really like opinions please I am going to pick it up today

The plane has left the gate.. BUT it really doesn't matter how long the job in reality takes it's billed at what the estimated time to do the repair takes which is where they screw you on labor. I personally think the three items should be billed at max 3 hrs. so I'd ask them to sharpen their pencil and see what they can do.

Just spoke to my friend that owns a European car shop and he said listed above isn't the best price but it is within the price range just the very high side. About your heater valve it is quite easy so depending on the shop they should not charge more than an hour to swap it.
