Default 1987 Audi 5000 Oxygen Sensor---OEM vs Universal

In 20 years I never replaced the Original Oxygen Sensor and the car
recently flunked the California Emission test by a small margin.

I am debating whether I should get the higher priced OEM sensor or one
of the cheaper Universal Sensors,

Any input would be appreciated.
