Oil Trap questions

I’m looking at a leaking oil trap on my 2009 9-5 Aero, not badly leaking so I have time. The only replacements available in the US are made by ProParts, but my Saab tech has told me he has had problems with those fitting properly. Some of the older posts here indicated the o-ring on the ProParts oil traps may have been of poor quality and can start to leak again. Other posts indicate the quick connect hoses are difficult to quick connect to the trap, maybe because of oversized o-rings in the fittings. Everyone agrees that the job is a pain because there is so little room, so I don’t want to do it again anytime soon. Has anyone had any recent experience replacing an oil trap on a post-2004 9-5 with the ProParts trap and has their quality improved? I have done oil traps on 2000 and 2001 9-5s, and those were pretty easy in comparison, maybe a 30 minute job. Now it looks like the PCV#6 kit for early 9-5s is only available from ProParts. Has anyone had any experience with those kits as the hoses on mine won’t last forever? Thanks for any help you can provide.
