IF you're not losing coolant or oil, you don't need the valve cover and intake gaskets done. The belt and tensioner are about $20 each, and take about 20minutes to replace, so their estimate is brutal rapage. The starter is under teh front of the engine, and requires the removal of a total of 8 bolts/nuts (that's if you drop the inspection cover, only 4 if not). Again, less than an hour job (worse case scenario, as some 3.1 starters can be a #$%%$ to get to) so it may be only a 20 min job also. They are probably trying to take advantage of you and showing you the DEX-COOL sludge. I doubt seriously, unless you ARE using coolant and oil, that all these repairs are necessary.
