The compressors are slightly different in the 960 than the FWD/AWD cars. Regardless, oil coming from the sealed motor area is not a good thing. Sounds like the bearings are worn and allowing the oil to leak.

This thread is not exactly your problem, but will show some of the work needed to repl the compressor:
