Catalyst system efficiency below threshold bank 2. What is the likelyhood that this is just the oxygen sensor gone bad versus the front/left catylytic converter gone bad?

Well, use a diagnostic scan tool, read the data for the oxygen sensors, compare b2s1 and b2s2, as long as the readings are not mimic one another, meaning, identical, then oxygen sensor is okay, doing its job measuring, you would then look for other possible causes, such as, exhaust leaks, air intake leaks, timing, fuel injectors, or fuel injector leaks, spark plugs condition.
