I don't think they ever changed the design of the heater core. They're still selling the same stuff. eEuroparts has an all copper one off of another car, I think, for several times the price of the Saab unit.
I would do what others have done, use Bar's Leak. I've been using in on a small leak in my '95CSE for over 3 yrs, and no longer have the smell. If you have not flushed the radiator recently, I'd do that first. I used 5oz twice the first time to get the leak stopped. Then 5oz per year.
When my blower motor dies, I'll go in and replace both since they are close together. In the meantime, I've gotten an extra 3yrs service from my heater core and blower motor.
