Guys i got as well Saab 93 2.0t that one with 175hp .
i bought it with 179 000 miles and now is 189 000 and there is no sound of chain rattle at all, but Im changing oil every 5k,
I am so surprise how that engine sound, nothing like that mileage, just so healthy  (  got small oil leak but I'm waiting till summer for proper cleaning and servicing the small leak )

Oil at the back of the engine?  If so, probably Oil Pressure Switch.  Cheap part to buy, bit of a bugger to fit without a ramp as space is limited around the back.  My local Saab specialist charged £60 for the part including fitting.
