The Ecotec engine as it is now called, was developed by Opel and Saab jointly. The Saab version also has it's own heads/bottom end/block which appear to have been recently shared on other GM products (ie supercharged Delta cars, some Opels and Vauxhalls) but partswise it is very much Saab engine, and "engineering train of thought" wise it is mostly a Saab motor. Compared to the original Ricardo motor (ie completely non-Saab) which the H engine evolved from.
