you will need to fit a 2.2k ohm resistor, just fitted a new up pipe on mine yesterday and it didn't have the bung for the egt sensor in it

i wouldnt bother putting the sensor back in as its only there to monitor the exhaust temps so it doesnt get too hot and kill the cat, so if de-catted it would be of no use.
here is where i got mine from:
MRS25 2K2 ±1% 0.6 watt Metal Film 2.2K ohm resistor 2.2 on eBay, also Passive Components, Components Supplies, Electrical Test Equipment, Business, Office Industrial (end time 01-Jul-09 14:20:24 BST)

worked a treat, although the only sell them in packs of 10
