The only thing that they will do is adjust the toe-in and they might not have the right spec for that.
The subframe was lowered to get the trany out. I am thinking that the subframe is not positioned the same as is was. Good practice is to mark the location of the SF to get is put back just as it was. With an older vehilce, I expect that the old postion is quite evident. I think the folks who did your trany and seal work are responsible for this. If the SF has to be adjusted you will probably pay more than a standard alighnment fee at the tire shop, and they may not know the SF torquing procedures.
The amount that it is out is probably quite minor. it will have a small effect on camber and cross-camber too. But if you do not feel that the vehicle pulls to one side, thats not a problem. The steering wheel centering can be adjusted at a toe-in adjustment. Both tie-rod ends will need to be adjusted. They may be difficult to adjust if they have never been worked on for years. Everyone should oil the threads of these from time to time to prevent rust.
