Vacuum pump oil leak
Hello!
I have already doubled disassemble vacuum pump from the engine. This is necessary because there is an oil leak. A common problem with this model Saab. I brush, buy a new rubber seal and install vacuum pump to engine. I did that at the end of July. Oil leaks stopped. Last week I noticed that the oil flows back from the same place.
Has anyone faced this problem? What further I need to do to stop the oil leak?
I am grateful for every answer, an idea and a proposal to eliminate this annoying problem.
Thanks in advance!

When top bolt is removed, the seal between cover and pump body leaks. Remove and reseal with high temp silicone. Use new seal between pump and engine. Have repaired 5+.
