has the cat been removed or was it a 93 built car and therefore did not need a cat?

As as I can tell, it looks like it has been removed and a pipe welded on in place, I also thought only cars built prior to may 1992 did not require a cat to pass MOT emmisions.

They all had cats. If it was registered from August '92 onwards it has to pass a cat test.

A '94 only has the upstream sensor in the front pipe.

Yeah that one on e-bay will fit. Mk1's don't have lambda in the cat.
