Default Header swap on a 98 /00 o2 sensor

Ok I have a 98 honda civic ex sohc vtec. Long story short my motor went bad on the 98 so just recently got me a 2000 civic sohc vtec. My 98 had after market headers and exhaust so what did was a swap of the header and exhaust. After all said and done with the swap I cant find the O2 sensor plug in off the 2000 civic. I looked everywhere for it and just can't find it. I remember unplugging it off the 98 but don't remember unplugging one off the 2000. Can someone please help me with this issue?



White is the 98 honda and the green is the 2000





Cant find the plug to plug the o2 sensor off the 2000 civic

The 98 has the primary up front where the primaries meet. The 99-00 has the primary at the collector before the cat. You'll need an O2 extension to connect from the back of the engine to the front where your 02 is now.

I tried but wouldn't let me.

Ok so I found that the 2000 civic primary sensor is right under the motor right behind the oil pan. So I went and spent $100 for a new o2 sensor. We cleared the code because it was showing a bad o2. But it came back on an hour later. It is because I have an aftermarket exhaust and headers? and if so how do I prevent this.
