that's where the o2 sensor goes. in some cars it goes in at the end of the down pipe which i'm guessing is how yours is. plug that hole with a short fat bolt that's what i did

if you kept your stock catalytic converter just plug the 2nd hole at the bottom of the header and put your sensor in your top hole.

should i plug the hole at the top and put the sensor in the bottom, or keep the sensor at the bottom and put a bolt to plug the top?
Would it be ok if i just kept it at the bottom?

you could probably do that, i just know that using the top bung (the real name for the hole) and then pluggin the bottom one will work for sure.
