Default Engine swop

I've a friend who spent quite a lot of money getting his car through the French équivalant of an MOT only for the cambelt to go 6 weeks later. Now thinking of putting in a secondhand engine and was wondering the ball park price a garage would charge ,one engine out and one in. Car is a Renault 608. Thanks.

My engine swap on the Legacy is looking like around £500 one in one out.
