Default OBD1 LS in a OBD2 Ek coupe, o2 sensor help

I just swapped an LS(94) in my EK, my friend wired it up to be obd2(running an obd2 ecu) so the ecu is looking for 2 o2 sensors and my motor only has one(but my wiring harness has room for 2) is it hard to put an o2 sensor on the header? i tried searching and came up with nothing,

just get a obd2 cat and use the 2nd o2 sensor from the coupe and plug it back in under the car. or you can get a bung that needs to be welded into the exhaust and put the sensor in there.
