Thoughts and Opinions on 2014 E71 X6 XD35I

All, Looking for some thoughts and opinions.
Recently purchased a used E71, I brought it to the dealer to have the mechanic look over and see if there are any issues.

Estimate came back with the following that needs to be done
1. Oil Filer Housing Gasket: (I do see dirt and grime around that area)
2. Upper Radiator Hose Replacement
3. Drive Belt: Serpentine belt - Not making any squealing noises. Getting this repaired first
(However I've had past experiences with a 2006 Subaru Tribeca with 180K driving down a free way and the belt came off, luckily i was in the right lane and was able to pull into a gas station.)

Has anyone had similar or like issues with their pre-owned purchase?

Secondly I am looking for a DIY on how to change the OEM Brake Lines to
Stainless steel lines. I assume the process is the same as a 3 series which i have done before however the first time around i broke one of the Hard lines
wanted to avoid that with the X6.
