Default crawlspace insulation

Bought a 1967 brick rancher two months ago. The termite inspector
yesterday told me yesterday I had a water pipe leaking rather badly.
The plumber came and fixed it but also told me there is no insulation
under the house in the crawlspace. He says there are staples there but
the insulation is gone. For some reason the home inspector never
mentioned lack of insulation. Since all my previous homes have been on
slab I never thought to ask.

Obviously the old insulation was ripped out for some reason (flood,
maintenance?) and never replaced. I've called a few people to give me
estimates. Any ideas on what to expect? The house is around 1700 sq
ft.
