Default 850 T5 rear main seal Q's

I need to get this thing replaced finally! Few q's:
*If the seal is leaking very bad, will it totally drain all the oil out or will any oil be left in the pan?
*Is a Volvo specific tool needed to do this job?
*Anyone know any good Volvo techs in the SF Bay Area willing to do a side job? I know what the dealers charge

question 1 is yes.
question 2 is no, I used a 4" schd40 pipe coupling with male threads on it.
question 3 is no, I have not been to SF.
