Exclamation Need help finding Exhaust header/downpipe for a 97 civic

I have an automatic '97 automatic Honda civic ex, and recently the downpipe rusted out where it connects to the cat converter. I'm planning to replace the downpipe as well as the headers (because everything else after my cat have also been replaced so i'll have pretty much a fully redone exhaust system) but a lot of the options on amazon seem to not quite fit correctly. For example, a lot of people in the reviews for this one (
Amazon Amazon
) say that the o2 sensors don't fit and that the pipe falls a few inches short of actually reaching the cat.

Has anyone done a similar fix to this on specifically a 97 civic ex, that would know a system that would definitely fit? Also if anyone has any insight as to why some of these exhausts fit some models/years of civics but not other ones, it would be greatly appreciated.

Also, if it helps I can include pictures of what happened to my car as well as other products I've been looking at to replace it with, just let me know!

tl;dr: does anyone know a header/downpipe set that DEFINITELY fits an automatic civic ex from 1997? I'm not trying to shell the money out for these pipes only to find out that its not an exact fit.
