in your rear 02 holes if you have them on the headers, if not def make one at or before your X-pipe or y-pipe so you can measure both banks and that will be fine, either way

Replace your CATS with strait pipes. Use second bung hole after strait pipe.

But if it is an AEM wideband, the sensor wont screw into the factory O2 bung, will it?

Should screw in. All sensors I've ever used are 18MM thread....

I don't have cats and the headers only have bungs for the two O2's. I welded the bung in right before the X. Should be fine.
