Default Fix hole in midpipe?

Seller wants to sell a FI exhaust but he was boosted so there is a hole for his afr sensor. About size od nickel

Is this is simple repair to plug or patch that hole without affecting me negatively? Or not worth buying.

It should be a threaded bung if it was used for a wideband 02, so you could just plug it with a bolt.

If it doesn't have a threaded bung, just about any muffler shop (or other place that can weld relatively thin metal) can weld it closed for you.

I've tried to find that bolt before at a local Sears or Home Depot before. No success! Best bet is to just google O2 bung plug and buy what you find. It'll be the perfect length so you don't have to cut it down so it won't effect the a flow and hang down in the pipe.
