Is the guy who diagnosed the cracked block a Saab specialist? My guess would be the gasket where the water pump housing goes into the block. There are a lot of things that can knock and sound like a rod--fuel injectors, vacuum pumps and even water pumps (I had one that did it). You've got to hit 300,000--you're so close. I say patch what you have to and drive it until it dies by the road. Saabs are famous for their abilty as "walking wounded." My son had an '86 9K that was using a quart of trans fluid a week (5 speed). He drove it like that for 90,000 miles(up top of the 100K already on it), sold it, and last we heard it's still going.
