I'd be wary of stop leak (and clog turbo and engine..??!!) products for oil in my 1999 9-5. Try to identify exactly where the oil is coming from instead, despite the awkwardness of pinpointing this with how air turbulence pushes the oil over the underside of the motor. I had a 4 month leak that I finally tracked down to the oil sending unit hidden on the backside of the block, obscured by the starter motor. This was after checking all the gaskets at the head (including the recommended retorque procedure), the timing cover, the oil pan, etc. Best of luck!!
