If you're going to do it all yourself then, in theory not too much...
£200 minimum for an engine and gearbox, plus £100-£150 for all the extras like a clutch pedal, clutch master cylinder, clutch slave cylinder, clutch hose, gear lever and linkage.
The auto subframe is slightly wider so you'll need engine mount spacers (£15) or a manual subframe (£50)
If you go from a 998 to a 1275 at the same time, you may need new manifolds and a bigger carb.
Most things can be bought secondhand from guys on here or from Ebay.
I'm doing all that right now, see my project thread (signature link)

I've done the job myself, and for quite a bit less than that. £120 for a decent engine & box, £20 for a pedal box, £20 for the clutch hose, cylinder & gear lever from my own stock, made up my own adapters for the subframe. I needed to change the driveshafts but I had those in stock too.
However the OP sounds as though he wants someone to do the work, and I'd estimate adding 50% to the normal labour for an engine swap, whatever that is, plus whatever you can source the parts for.
