I went through this. First, you probably have only one leaker- so identify and just buy that one -$80.00. Second, there is a bypass kit to bypass the transmission line thermostat block- an all aluminum thing mounted to the frame that you will see all of the lines go to. Removing the lines can strip the male threads on this item so be careful. I got a new one from a salvage yard- and replaced one line.
The bypass kit reduces everything to two long lines and does away with that thermostat. I was told that unless you are in a super cold area- the transmission line thermostat does nothing. The bypass kit was much more than the repair I did involving one new line and new aluminum thermostat block. You will be fine if you can get that one bad hose off of the thermostat block- unfortunately, the hose ends are unique and you will have to by Saab- go through Sobstory- I think they're very good.
