Look at the valve cover.
8 Valve: "Saab. Firing Order 1342." Valve cover approximately the width of your fist. Spark plug wires below the valve cover, near the exhaust heat shield.
16 Valve: "Saab. 16 Valve." Valve cover approximately 6 inches wide with a four-bolt metal cover running along the middle, which may or may not be present. Spark plug wires run underneath this cover, and the plugs are located in the middle of the cylinder head.
