So I'm reading through Savage Species and I notice that the energy drain attack For the Wight template now allows a fortitude save on the attack to immedietly avoid having the negative level bestowed in the first place and the normal fortitude save in 24 to remove the negative level.
Looking at other energy drain critters in Savage Species like the spectral template and sure enough energy drain behaves the same way as the Wight template.
Not sure if this was mentioned here before but based on this it looks like they might be changing the way energy drain works in 3.5.
Oh and BTW the Wight in Savage Species bestows 2 negative levels on a failed save as opposed to one in the MM.
