It's probably the cover. There is a round screw on cover that is over the spot where the oil filter lives on the non-turbo version of this engine. It screws on just like an oil filter with a thin o-ring that gets baked by the heat of the turbo. Pretty easy to replace, the o-ring is $2 from Saab.
If your car has some miles on it, consider replacing the crank position sensor while you are in there - it is the same labor to do both, and they tend to fail at the 60-80K mark. $70ish.
