No worries, I can help you, the P0430 does not mean cylinder 2 is misfiring. It means the catalytic converter on Bank 2 is operating below its expected efficiency. Can you tell if the engine is misfiring, can you please upload short video of the engine running from under the hood so I can see/hear it? This will help us go in the right direction for the repair. I can tell you at 200k the cat might be worn out but lets see how the engine is running first.
