Well, yes, it's common practice to mark that on the timing cover. That being said, it wasn't on my car when I bought it, even while it was the Saab dealer's own car! At 155k km it appeared to have still the original assembly. That was pretty reckless, although perfectly possible when you like gambling.
I wouldn't know how to distinguish the old tensioner assy from the new. the old one is still sitting on the shelf. 1996 is just the year they started pputting in the new that lasts 60k miles.
The partnumber of the updated kit is #4773842, the original old one is #4623906 or #4770509 depending on engine serial number.
If you have an invoice with the first number of recent date, you're ok.
The guide roller has number #4771085, the old one (1995) has #4770459.
Numbers are as usually stamped on the part itself. Thing is, of course you need the timing cover off to check it........
Some other P/N s you might want to know:
The Timing Belt: #4770491
serpentine belt: #4395463 unless you're in the tropics (= larger ac compressor = longer belt)
rear tensioner pulley: #5172226
( the tensioner assembly that it is mounted on : #4237020)
tensioner pulley ( the one between chrankshaft, PS and Ac pulleys): #4237038
Hope this helps if you want to work on the car yourself, or if you have service history, it will make checking for maintenance in the area easier.
Good luck
