Catalytic conversion code

Sooo. On Friday my coil on cylinder 3 went out. Replaced and all was good. Yesterday check engine light came on. I used my foxwell and it is showing a catalytic conversation code as well as a conversion 2 code.
I have been trying to read and comprehend what this issue is and for whatever reason I can't seem to follow what folks are saying.
I just had the dealer replace the VANOS 2 months ago, car has been driving great. No issues at all.

It also says physical hardware #7569975

watched another video and it was saying that I could possibly "melted" the ceramic in the catalytic converter when my cylinder 3 went out. unspent fuel goes in exhaust pipe then eventually fires and burns ceramic.

I just ran a live test on O2 sensors, and one set reads 2.0 and the others read around .5 both match each other within a few degrees. I cleared the codes and after running car the check engine didnt come back on again?
