long story short a smoke bomb went off in my car so i popped my hood and found my valve cover loose as shit, and my headers soaked in oil. All bolts on my driver side head are stripped. so my questions are do i need to remove the head to heli coil or tap it? And how much am i looking at to fix it? the car is a 92 coupe thanks

I've stripped a valve cover bolt on my old 5.0. Just use one of those bolt extractor tools and you'll be fine. But it took some time to do becuause of the angle those bolts face.
