There is more to this than just making an orfice larger. There are two hoses that get eaten up from the inside and the grommet that holds the connector in the valve cover deteriorates. The oil trap box on the back of the engine must also be cleaned or replaced. I have seen it written up that the Aero oil trap is better for this if you have to replace it, mine was cleaned. This has all been done on mine and the blue smoke is gone. Turbo seal is still leaking some small amount of aoil causing O2 sensor to light up CEL. Car runs great, I just am ignoring it until the turbo goes if it does. Here is link to Saab info that Nick has posted.
