Your oil pick up tube seals are leaking. You would need to remove the oil pan and replace the seals from the screen and the tube inside the oil pan that is held by a 10mm bolt. Clean pan up really good and get the chmical gasket from Volvo to aply on the pan to reassemble. You will also need to order the oil cooler seals as well since you will need to remove it to drop the pan.
