It all comes down to what state your engine is in now, and if you are willing to maybe take to an independant shop instead.
If the engine HAVEN'T started to break up already, it might be enough to remove the oil pan, oilpump and valve cover. And give the engine a good clean out.
That's part of what we tried to do with the engine in the link below.
But after awhile I realized that this engine had so many broken parts inside, we had to replace it instead.
The technician that have looked at your engine might also have seen something that make him uncomfortable to even promise you a low cost solution and to give any warranty on a repair like that.
A second opinion is always good.
