Ahh, I thought that you had already determined the oil leak was from oil pump seals with last postings.
Head gasket oil leaks are very common in the 97 to 2001 Saab engines due to bad cylinder head bolts and faulty torque specs at the factory during that time frame.
The first approch would be to remove the valve cover and replace and torque the head bolts.
If the oil leak stops with that you are ok, otherwise yo need to replace the head gasket.
You can do a search for head bolts on this and the 9-5 board and read up on it since we have talked about it to great length over the last years.
Below is a link to the 9-5 board where I posted a little study about the latest PCV fix and that it pretty much rverts back to one of the earlier updates that still didn't work that good.
