Yes, that motor has Cat's
The code numbers are for the most part standard based on engine type, based on my research. Example automotive code XXXX is the same across the auto industry.

You have a GXI but didn't say anything after that. Have a VP manual listing codes for a GXI-F and it doesn't have that code, but the F also didn't use Cat's

Bank 1 is odd numbers (1,3,5,etc) so it's port side where cylinder 1 is

Something you could try, is swap sensors and see if fault moves to other side
