Just remember that it's a consultant role, just like he's doing with the ex-employee. If he's OK with paying the ex-employee to do something, he shouldn't have any problem paying someone else. But again, I wouldn't charge for the assessment. The positive thing that comes from a free assessment is that you get an idea of what the problems are, and you don't have to act on it. It's free information. Then if your boss decides to use that information to hire the ex-employee to do it, he's no worse off than he was before. But the benefit is more than one pair of eyes on a situation.
And when you can get that for free, that's a good deal.
