What are other Z22SE owners with a Saab sump using as a guide for the right oil level? My dipstick reading after oil and filter change and adding 6.5 litres is alarmingly low, just to the top of the word "MIN" at the end of the dipstick.

I only just have it showing on the dipstick ( 1st knotch as max ) If I put any more in it it throws it out in to catch tank of the cam cover

Aahh, thanks Chris.  That makes me feel a lot better, pretty similar symptoms to me.
