Question Got my DPF off but ran into some snags...

My ML320 is giving me all sorts of idling and stalling issues and the scans came up with DPF issues so I decided to take it out vs spraying it in.
Kinda wish I had done the latter lol.
Both the front and rear brackets had the torq heads snap off the bolts but at least it freed them.
I might try to drill out the bolts and get some new ones, hopefully that should work out.
The BIGGEST issue is the front sensor (is that an O2 sensor?) snapped the threads off and they stayed in the sensor.
Soooo I guess I will need a new sensor as well....F.
Anyone know the sensor I need along with the thread size as I will need to get a welder to put in a new one?
The Liquid Moly stuff works great.
Cheers for the assistance.
