The answer could be thousands. A lot depends on what has been done since the contamination. At the very least you're looking at a new master cylinder, calipers, wheel cylinders and all rubber hoses. If the fluid has been circulated throughout the system, you could be looking at an ABS control unit also.

It would take a lot of research on pricing but you could easily spend a couple thousand.
