I remember you writing about that. That may be an excellent option for
me.
If I take this option, I probably don't need the 62kWh, as I can't sit
in the Leaf that long. I find the seats horribly uncomfortable. But just
knowing you did it means, I hope, I could lean on you for advice in the
process. 30kWh is probably sufficient.
First step, for me, is to research the price. Any advice on how to
search for a used 30kWh battery ?

I put a 62kWh pack from a 2019 into my 2012 Leaf. Took one afternoon with
simple tools, like 2 axle stands and 1 hydraulic floor jack and a ratchet
wrench.
If you can find a pack you would be happy with, then I can provide advice
how to do this.
Most important part, currently unavailable, is the CANbridge from Dala in
Finland.
Become Patreon supporter of his if you want to be in front of the queue
once he gets a new supply of CAN interface chips. Also very helpful Disqus
channel.

My estimate would be 4-7k for a salvage 30 kwh pack + 2-3k labor, so I
think your 5k hope is a bit low.
Shifting a 30kwh to a 2011 requires special adapter cables as well as
the man in the middle can adapter, so it's slightly more involved than
putting it into a 2013+ model, but still not an overly complicated
endeavor.
In addition to EV rides, you may also consider the Canadian option:
Precision Auto Service Ltd
22575 Fraser Hwy # 101, Langley, British Columbia V2Z2T5, Canada
Electric Vehicle EV Service and Repair, Ask for Scott Waddle
