If the oil pressure relief valve is scored, so is the bore in timing cover and oil pump housing and sanding the valve will have little effect on the whole scenario.
Maybe some 9-3s have the same problem with worn balance shaft sprockets but I have seen very few posts about it and not seen a bad one myself.
I think it was a post some weeks ago about a 9-3 having bad sprockets.
Disabling the balance system will have no effect at this pint since the damage is already done and dropping the oil pan and replacing timing cover, pump gear and valve might be in order.
I would probably remove the oil pump and look for scoring and if it looks bad, you need to go the whole way.
