If the 6 cylinders have a flame trap screen, I'd consider tossing it. I threw away the one on my 95 850 (same engine minus one cylinder) 6 years ago upon purchase and never regretted it. Also threw away the one on my 90 240. No issues with either car.

Is this a maintenance item for you or do you have an oil consumption problem? If it is an oil leak or consumption issue and replacing the flame trap doesn't solve it then I would go after the oil separator next.
