well, I can only offer some advice based on my past oil leak ordeals with my '87 9000S (non-turbo). therefore there is no oil level sender. simply a blocking plate in its location. rear engine leak could possibly be the rear main seal. not good news. but don't forget that the cylinder head is designed with an oil drainage hole at the rear between the camshaft towers. in the event of a simple valve cover gasket failure. this oil would then drain down the rear of the engine. oh, and that oil filler tube? replace the damn thing. duct tape? on a SAAB? please...
