Long before I would suggest replacing the y-pipe, I would have a new O2 sensor bung welded on. Should be reasonably priced at a true exhaust shop (i.e. not midas or monroe). Try to find a mom/pop exhaust shop in your area and take it to them. They should be able to cut off the existing bung and weld on a new one.
Helicoil may work, but price the new bung.
