My V6 is running strong with almost 138,000mi. Oil leaks from front valve cover gasket and oil pan gasket. The valve covers are "known issues" for these cars and mostly just a nuisance. The oil pan gasket is not unexpected since these cork-composite gaskets age and deteriorate.
For the "no name" thread, there is significant GM influence on all NG 900s. The V6 takes an Opel engine; it was not developed by Saab. It also appears in the 9000 and the Cadillac Catera as well as the Opel Vectra and maybe others.
