It must be somewhere before the catalytic converter. If you just follow the front exhaust down pipe, you will eventually find it.

It could be covered by a heat shield. Is it a 1.8 K series engine?

Very strange. It should have the sensor.

bit of an update looks like the engine management light isn't coming on at all when ignition is turn'd to position 2 on the ignition so looks like someone has removed the sensor and the bulb out of the EML so will be doing some inspections this weekend
