O2 sensor issue from exhaust

There's no O2 sensor wiring near the rear end.
Your car would normally have 4 O2 sensors; 2 of them, with green plastic connectors in the wiring, up close to your shorty headers. The other two, with blue plastic connectors, are located past (or in) the cats (catalytic converters, that is).
Second, a burnt wire on a O2 sensor wont cause gas to be spit back at you when filling up.
Since your check engine light is on, you need to find out what DTCs its telling you. It may not be a O2 sensor issue at all, or maybe it is.
If you need a replacement, you can get ahold of a good used one for half or less than what a new one cost (send me a PM or post here, I have a couple extras).
Not to be blunt, but, if you love your car so much, try to understand what's right and wrong, and we can help you a lot more that way, and help you to get it right

No One in the replies has been a "condescending jerk" to you. We were all trying to answer your questions and give you help. Those replies you received were all the same we would have given to any male who posted the same information. I didn't even know you were female.
And the O2 sensor is up in the front of the car, not the back where you describe the burned wire. And, it is a long way from the gas filler. The two issues are not connected to each other. Like I said, the gas spitting back out of the filler is a common problem.
But with that good luck with your car and I have no intention to bother you with any thoughts from here on out. But if you want to have a successful time here I suggest you check the attitude.

Nice way to introduce yourself there precious. 
And calling a Moderator a "Condescending Jerk" (or anyone else for that matter) isn't gonna fly here either.
We have a few female members here and we love them but they are not Special over any other members and if they get out of line like you did, they'll be put back in their place just like any other member. Kayyyyyyy.
Like Tom Hanks would say: "There's no crying in MF!"
Oh, and thread closed for now...
