Hesitation on hard acceleration 200 1982

Don't know why, but today I stuck my hand on the O2 sensor and it was barely screwed into the manifold. Also looks like someone has spliced the wire at some point. Is it possible that this is the cause of my problems on acceleration?

Can I test this without dropping more money on the car? That is to say, test to see if the O2 sensor was the problem, not test to see if the O2 sensor works. Regardless of whether it works or not, the threads are stripped and won't seal well into the manifold.
