Two days labour say £760, but depending on your local labour rates in Liverpool, plus parts needed.

If it has dropped a valve then you're in to possible piston/bore damage.

Also check that it isn't a rocker or pushrod problem.

Sometimes you can be lucky and it is rocker broken or pushrod jumped out or cam follower failed.
