I suspect you will have no problems. I don't know what the inspection process is like in the UK, but in the US, California is the only state in which you'd likely fail, as they specifically check the part number (or CARB EO number) on aftermarket cats and require that the number match the make & model of car.

Usually, regulations that appear overly complicated on the surface are the result of someone making money off them. So where is the money to be made by having such restrictive legislation?

As one might imagine, the cost of CA-legal aftermarket converters increased rather dramatically after this rule was put into place 5 or 6 years ago.
