The first o2 sensor is for motor operations/performance. It tells the ECU that it's either running rich or lean.
The second one only monitors the cat and it's by the cat, that's it.
What do you mean "under the header"? Do you mean under the motor or just below the exhaust manifold?

its probably your 2nd O2 sensor....but if it isnt....most cats are legal, long as it doesnt say "for off-road/show use only", or some i seen will even say not for use in Cali.
