What the Labor Time to replace a Power Steering pressure hose?

I just got my car back from the Chevy Dealer and they charged me for 2 1/2 hours labor to replace the Power Steering Pressure hose that busted Sunday afternoon. $84 for the hose, I knew that, but I was figuring 1 1/2 hours tops, since it's only two pressure connections and two mounting screws. They tried to get me to agree to a P/S system "Flush" for $149, I asked them what's to Flush the system is empty. They also checked the alignment as soon as I pulled into the service area, and of course I needed a Four Wheel Alignment.... I told them great Up Sell, but I'll take back to where I bought my new tires, 3 months ago, since they did it, and I bought the 3 year plan... What do you think? Can any mechanics chime in with "Book Time" on this hose? Thanks
