Common Saturn problem. You need a new gasket kit. I believe mine was
around $35 for the outer cover ring and the 4 little rings.

When you see a kit, you'll think "Thirty-five dollars for that!" The gasket
looks like it was squeezed out of a silicon chalk gun onto a piece of
cardboard and then wrapped in kitchen-grade Handi-Wrap.

Was an easy, but messy job. Make sure you got a torque wrench for the
bolts. Might want to look and see if the upper engine hanger mount is shot
as well while you're at it (another $85 or so with new bolts).

Mine never leaked again up until the day I got rid of it (Dual-Cam model,
fwiw). Couldn't say much about the Saturn's affinity to use oil though
(especially the stick shift model).
