Headgasket or other? '92 9000 issues

I've asked some questions on here before and you guys have been great. I had this '92 9000 for acouple of years and I really like it. Anyhow, acouple days ago I noticed oil/water spots on the road as I was leaving home in it(I just got back minutes earlier and had to leave again). Anyhow, I stopped to investigate and found my radiator overflow tank bubbling with pressure. Of-course I thought it was a head gasket but didn't see any signs out the tail pipe. So I parked it as it was dark out. Did some more investigating in the garage the next day and didn't find the oil overfull nor did the antifreeze end up in any of the cylinders as I pulled plugs. Is it the head gasket or something else? What is the hose for off the reservoir to the water pump? could that pump be acting up? Forgive me I am a old american muscle guy and this Saab is still a bit strange to me yet mechanical wise. Thanks
