Not sure what your mechanic saw. However, the clamps around the hoses tend to shrink in the cold - er actually I guess the hose and fitting shrink. Anyway sometimes simply tightening the clamp will cure a leak.
Assuming that the hoses are not leaking... Water pump seal is a leak area, but only need to pull right front wheel and liner. I've never had a water pump or wp seal failure on three 9ks that I have owned, and all of them had more miles than this car.
If you are not doing most of the work on the car yourself, and even if you are, you need a good Saab mechanic. Anders was suggested below, also think Wong is in the LA area, and may be in your area. I believe there is a recommended mechanic's list on this board. Also "click and clack's" website has a mechanic's list.
