Well the thing is I did the plugs years ago. I used an old plug boot to get it in the first few threads. They gave me a quote for the rethread and for a engine so that is why I was wondering about a new block. I am just worried that the engine is damaged because it was run for so long like this (I didn't have much choice). I am calling bs on this one because Ford won't cover this so I am going to fight it as much as I can. I can't imagine a plug that was put in over two years ago would only do this now.

Edit: Also I don't know how to rethread and I don't have time. What would a normal shop charge for this? I have to factor in moving the car again and since Ford is getting the rental it might work out cheaper.
