Default stripped block
what do u do if one of the headbolt holes in the block is stripped? is there anyway to fix this? all the other holes are fine, theres just one stripped hole.

He is.
Just get a helicoil kit. Only problem you'll run into is finding the right size. Sure heli-coil sells just about every size possible but they do so in bulk...
