when you get an O2 sensor aging code it is telling you that the sensor is responding slowly. Which is what they start to do as they get get older. eventually their response gets slow enough that the DME throws the code. Unlikely that the cats are causing the problem.

If the O2 sensors are new or recently replaced and you are getting O2 sensor aging codes.
I think there are other issues in play.
Were the codes present before they were replaced?
If so were the codes erased after they were replaced?
If they were replaced recently are you positive they are the right ones for the car.
If they were other than Bosch or Porsche (relabeled Bosch) in my mind things get iffy.
Is all the wiring to them and from them to the DME sound?
Are the connections sound?

I would fix the timing issue first.
In fact if it was me I would not drive or even start the car until the cam timing issue was resolved.
Then I would erase all codes and go from there. But that's me.
