Default Stealership estimate - $500 for transmission leak

Hi all,

I feel like I'm getting ripped a new one, so I thought I'd ask what my options are.

I dropped the car off this morning at a local stealership... SRT6 developed the TSB transmission leak (at least I hope it is). Here's what I have on my estimate:

CK Trans Leak
CK Exhaust leak (I told them about the issue i was having at light throttle, low RPM that sounded like paper in spokes)
Safety check

Estimate: $500

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought this was a $20 part and maybe an hour worth of labor? So why is my estimate so high? If they come back and tell me it was in fact the TSB, what are my options?
