You'll get most of the oil leaks...if the leak is inside the distributor and make sure you still have a dust cover over the guts to minimize slop into the rotor cap...
IPDUSA.com in california has a kit for driving out the assembly pin and reassembling it...works/designed for volvo distributors but works on most bosch bits, like Saab! The central O-ring might fit...may use a Honda O-ring, I forget the part number but the volvo bulletin board/FAQ may help.
It costs roughly $175 for the saab distributor rebuild kit, prob around $300 or more for a factory rebuild distributor. So how bad is your leak!
