What happens to a vehicle if the OH2 censor happens to be cut and how long would the damage take if any?

If you mean the HO2 (Heated Oxygen Sensor), then that works to tell your car's ECM how rich or lean the engine is running. The ECM uses that information to adjust the fuel ratio to keep the engine's emissions to a minimum. If the Oxygen Senor is not functioning, the ECM cannot tell what the engine is doing and goes to a default, rich fuel mixture. An overly rich mixture will decrease you vehicle's fuel economy and cause damage to your catalytic converter.
