Forget that 02 socket - they're nearly worthless. They spread and slip under high torque.
If you are replacing it then you don't care about the wires so cut them off right at the top of the O2 and use a regular deepwell. A small pipewrench works wonders on the stubborn ones.

I have yet to have a problem with the O2 socket either. However, you may have enough room to get it there with a good sized box end, end, or crescent wrench if you don't have a sensor socket handy.

The connector must be out of sight in the picture
