Success! Took a while because I over-think simple stuff but I got Louie's trick replacement part installed today. Runs like a champ! Nice positive connection too--Louie's part has a longer metal shaft that gets all the way into the O2 sensor boot connection.

Update
 
Update: After connecting Louie85's neat replacement O2 sensor connector two weeks ago I read more posts in this thread. Well, I realized that I had grounded the coaxial shielding to the core wire and thus still had a non-functioning O2 sensor signal. The car ran poorly so my hunch was correct. My buddy Thor (Brown747) came over early this morning and dove in. He, being more competent than me, was able to access more of the sensor wire and get it out to where he could properly strip the shielding back, heat-shrink it out of the way and crimp+solder an eyelet onto the center wire. Viola! Car started, idled and ran like a champ! Never better. Went out for a 2-ship drive and the cab is running amazingly well now. No more fussy idle and rich smell out the back. Sure is nice to have competent friends!
