Make that a 1999! Was: 1998 A6 quattro Avant, dual exhaust?

ETKA appears to indicate that the 2.8 has 2 exhaust manifolds, 2
downpipes, 2 cats, 1 center muffler (fed by the two cats, with two
outputs), and 2 rear mufflers.

You or your friend might check local dealers to see if they have a used
one for sale you can go look at, if you don't get any more conclusive
reports.
