If the sensor is pegged at 0.007V, it is more likely that there is a problem with the wiring on that side.

Well that sure sounds better than burning holes in my pistons. But I've confirmed that the wiring is not the issue, both by continuity and resistance checks, and by bypassing the wiring and reading the voltage directly at the O2 sensor (.007v). So I'm still concerned that the left bank is running really lean even if the computer is using the right sensor for guidance. The left side sensor is still indicating an extreme lean condition. Hope that made sense. Thanks for the reply.
