i think both of them fail and i think the reason is repeated missfire. at first missfire oil leak in cylinder 3 and the guy that pulled it up only change the plug thats it so pretty much the missfire happen again because he did not fix the reason causing the missfire which was to replace the rock and cover gaskets inner and outer i think. i bought them original from lincoln dealer and did a full service changing those when the second missfire occure, base on the information i found it seem that repeated missfire is possible reason why cat fail and seem both of them fail so both need chaning.
