I think that was probably me.
I called roadside assistance and had the car put on a flatbed truck and taken from my house to the dealer. They will not tow a car that leaks gas with a regular tow truck. In fact they may call the Fire department and hose the car down with foam before the tow, so be diplomatic with the roadside assistance people. They did not send the fire department for me because I was very clear on the fact that it only leaked when it was on.
So, the problem ended up being a simple hose clamp. Everything, including the flatbed and rental car was covered by Saab.
As for the flatbed, the driver was very good and used a 2x4 to enable the Viggen to get on the truck without hitting the airdam. I would have a piece of lumber ready for him. When I got the car back there was no evidence that it hit on the way off either.
