Default Where can i find a bolt that fits in the 02 sensor hole?

my high flow cat had 2 holes for o2 sensors. one had a bolt in it because my type of car doesn't use that hole. but i didnt torque it down enough and it flew off while i was driving today so now theres a huge hole in my cat. does anyone know the measurements of the o2 hole or where i can find another bolt to fit in there and stop the air?

the other hole is for a wideband to tune the car on the dyno....you can go to a muffler shop and they will have a plug for it.

Go to any muffler shop. I had the same problem and I went to a muffler shop to buy one and they just gave it to me.
