See:

The signals from the sensor are very weak, so it is important to ensure a
good electrical connection. I use a shielded cable, and connect the centre
conductor to the sensor and the shield to the lambda sensor body.

Sorry, can't help you here. You should try to get a universal type
sensor, they ought to cost around GBP 20.

Haven't tried that. You should try to find an area of sufficient
thickness, then drill and tap M18x1.5. Problem is that the area really
needs to be flat to get a gas tight seal. So it is probably easier and
better to weld a suitable nut to the exhaust pipe, close to the manifold.
