Default 2001 S40 serpentine belt replacement - why so expensive?

$400 plus to replace the belt? At least, that's what I get quoted. I'm sure its all labor...the belt isn't that expensive. Is it that hard to replace? Does the engine have to be dropped to do it? I'd really like to do it myself, but I've never done it on this car before.

Sure you didn't get a quote to replace the timing belt?
