Oil leak on '99 9-3 base

Hi All:
I found an ~8"x6" pool of oil under the front passenger side of the car, dripping off the back of the plastic undertray. The leak seems to be coming from near the bottom of the passenger side of the radiator. Is there an oil cooler on the '99 9-3, for which cone of the steel pipes could be leaking ( I can see to corroded pipes leading to the small radiator in front of the main radiator)? If so is this a DIY repair? The nearest SAAB dealer or SAAB-saavy indie is about 50 miles away, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. I plan to take the Suburban to work tomorrow and pick up spare oil, then drive the SAAB in Thursday for someone to look at. Will this be safe? this leak must have started on the wayhome because the level isn't down on the dip stick.
Thanks in advance.
