An exhaust shop should be able to cut out the flange and weld in two small lengths of pipe, connecting the exhaust pipes directly to the converter, for less than the cost of the parts.
On the 92, you shouldn't have any problems. The O2 sensors are far enough in front of the leak that your CE light shouldn't come on. That could give you decreased gas mileage.

So it seems that whether or not the flanges are busted, I might as well just get the shop to weld in the pipes, that seems to be if not the cheapest, then still relatively cheap. Then I wont have to worry about gasket deterioration or anything like that anymore. Ill take it in tommorrow and have a shop do it. In the mean time, I sound like im driving around some riced out Honda civic. it sucks.
