Reading your last posts makes me think that it might not be a headgasket leak since first, the 900 and the 99 9-3 engines (B204) are not known to leak that much back there.
They more had problems with the loose #10 headbolt which is the left/front one at and below the blind cover plug for distributor hole.
One suspicion is if the timing belt tensioner cap or body has come loose and it is actually leaking oil from that one.
So the first thing would be to get a can of brake cleaner in there and spray it clean for all oil and then see if you can pinpoint the leak from actually coming from the head/engine split or just a tad above from the tensioner body.
I charge an hour plus the cost of bolts and valve cover gasket to replace and retorque bolts.
