Default Oil Pan Seals Gone Bad...Where to Fix?

So about 3 weeks ago my car started leaking oil...It wasn't to bad at first, but its gradually getting worse and worse...Got an oil change today where the tech informed me that the oil pan seals were going bad...He was nice enough to bring me down and point out where it was and what was going bad...

Anyway, Where should i go to get this fix and how much am i looking at?

Located around Anaheim/Orange Area

Thanks guys!

which model do you have? if it's an earlier model LS/GS/sc/es, then it's a pretty easy job. basically, drain oil. remove oil pan, scrape off silicone, apply new silicon, reinstall oil pan, refill with oil.
any decent shop can do this in about 1.5 hours.
