Default Engine Code #1 oxygen sensor I think

4th gen 1992 manual accord lx. i hit a deer and getting the same symptoms as https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/1869639 which is bad gas milage plus a lot less power. i jumped the blue service connector and my CEL is just blinking. the light is on for a split second and the a long pause and then on again for a split second. thats #1 which is oxy sensor #1. now is that the one in the front right in front of my 2 rad fans? the one that looks like its going into the exhaust manifold cover? if thats the one i think i need a new one. which ones would you recomend? i know honda uses denso and that they are like $300 to buy from Honda, so does anyone know of a OEM Oxy sensor in the $150 range? thanks in advance.

unplug the sensor connection, squirt the base of the sensor with PB Blaster penetrating fluid, also squirt the 3-12mm bolts on the shroud. Then remove the shroud; you have to 'fanagle' it up and out. Then use your oxygen sensor socket and take out the sensor. I usually use an impact to bump the sensor loose the first 1/6 of a turn.
