A vacuum leak cannot be quoted if the vacuum leak location is not known. You will need to first have the vacuum leak verified and located then a quote for the repair can be made. Most vacuum leaks will cause a rough running engine. The most common vacuum leak is in the vacuum tee on the vacuum line connected to the back of the intake manifold gets a hole in it from deteriorated rubber tee.
