Red face engine fire

i have a 2002 wrx which caught fire, all the fire damage has been repaired through the insurance, the technicians states the fire was caused by oil being pushed past the crank seal and onto the exhaust, can anyone recommend a garage that will find cause and repair/replace affected parts
