Default Quick 02 sensor question

I have a 94 z28 LT1 motor. I noticed after adjusting my exhaust that i have no rear 02 sensor (After cat). I guess the owner before me or whoever put on the cat-back exhaust removed it or did a damn good job hiding it. So my question is, Dos not having one effect ANYTHING with the car other then saying hey cats bad / good. I read with OBd1 cars it wont throw a code. I know front ones will try to adjust A/F but if the rear is missing would it be lying to the computer saying cats bad and effect the front senors causing it to run lean or rich? I have no idea if it was tuned out or not. So ied rather play it safe.

Not positive about LT1's.....but LS1's have no use for the rear 02 sensors. They can't make the engine run improperly.
