Something's incorrect...is it the stock exhaust? What do you mean when you say there's 4 bungs but only 3 sensors, is one bung just sitting on the pipe open with no sensor in it?

Sounds like the previous owner swapped a bad front o2 out with one from the rear or even had a wideband o2 in the rear and then removed it before the sale. I take it the empty bung has a plug and no codes?

You should have 2 separate electrical plugs for your rear o2's after the cats. Look again and see if it's tied up out of the way with zip-ties. Sometimes you'll find o2 sims plugged in. If your car truly was stock then somethings very weird here.
