If they were going to do all that work for £400 i would have it done mate as just doing the oil seal would cost nearly that!!! They would probably need to put in a new clutch asswell.

Shouldnt fail on the crank oil seal unless the oil is pouring out, usually at most with a small leak its an advise.
What is wrong with the lights and caliper ?

oil leak is not a failure. But tester can refuse to test it if it's pouring out, but it would have to be really bad. I work as an mot tester, whats the actually wording on the failure sheet
