Head Problem,97 Boxster

Picked up car for a good price, stated problem was blown head gasket. Didn't think it was a big deal, that was until I went to replace the head gaskets. When I pulled one of the heads off, one of the head bolts seemed to come loose awfully easy. The head gasket looked fairly new, after checking the bolt that didn't seem tight, I found that the threads were stripped in the block.Apparently who ever tried to torque the head over did it. Anyway, has anyone had or known of this problem and if so what was done to correct it, if anything. Thanks everyone
