From talking to my local Saab guy he said that when your putting the head back together it is easy to break the guide. I'm guessing that repairing the piece that broke on top was the reason they had to dig deeper and discover the warn chain. My daughter picked up the car and there was no invoice. One worry is that my daughter told me that the water light came on. I added water but the coolant was oily looking. I'm not sure if it is just a case that they cut some corners at the end and they failed to flush the coolant or that there is still a problem with the head gasket.
The car broke down at the end of a trip from VT to NJ. I feel that they are probably a good shop but things just when horribly wrong with this one.
