My 99 Subaru legacy has 67k miles on it and I was informed that my oil pump needs to be resealed and it will cost about $700 but they will also replace a belt since they have the front of the engine removed.  I noticed on your other board that others have had this happen at about the same mileage.  Is this a weakness of the Subaru and also does the $700 repair cost seem reasonable?  I am in the midwest in a town of about 100,000 people. 
  
thanks
