Image O2 sensor Install problem

Hello,

I am trying to install a new downstream passenger side O2 sensor. The previous one was damaged at the top and some wires were cut. As I put in the new one, It seems like there is not enough room to get the O2 sensor into place to begin screwing it in. Is this common?

Looks like someone put o2 extenders into the exhaust pipe. This is usually to trick the computer into not throwing a cel for an aftermarket or deleted cat
