I tried searching and couldn't really find anything that answered my question

I have a 2000 Acura EL 1.6 all stock with the original d16y8 the CEL light is on and I get the code P0420 for a catalytic converter deficiency the question I had was is the cat built in the exhaust manifold like some Honda's? or is it separate from the manifold?

I have heard both and was wondering if someone who has some experience with Honda's could let me know

I would look myself but I have no place to do so and it is cold and snowing outside
