I've just found out that I have a leak from the main engine oil seal! Haven't had a quote from garage to change it - is it a DIY job or am I wishful thinking!

It could be a diy job if you have the tools and the time. You will need to remove the timing belt to get access to it.

Garage has just told me that the job entails engine & gearbox out and flywheel off - approx £450 - all to replace a small oil seal! Mechanic mentioned that there is an oil additive which can "rejuvnate" oil seals - does anyone know of this "magic" additive!?

Ah so it's the main rear seal. 

Not so sure it's an engine out job though. Personally I'm not a believer of any oil additives, once a seal is worn it's worn.
