Those are things we don't get involved with because there's way too many variables. I tried to look up the number of hours it pays to do the job, but apparently that is not a standard item. I think the job is billed as one charge for the glass and labor, then they might add on for camera calibration and things like that. The place to ask is at the glass replacement companies. One suggestion is to look for the little guys who drive a small van around and do this on site. They usually charge a lot less than the big-name franchise companies.
There's never a set charge for exhaust work because each job is different. It's not often a cracked exhaust pipe can be welded because if it's rusted, the metal will just burn away. Most shops will just replace the necessary pipes because it takes less time, (dollars), and there's less chance of a liability issue. Independent repair shops are probably not the best choice for this because they don't do enough of this type of work to be proficient at it and to have all the right adapters and other parts needed. Look for a shop that advertises exhaust repair, or one the chain outfits like "Midas". They almost always offer free estimates, and often give you two or more options.
