If the obligor's name is on the title, the State may place a lien on the property for past-due child support.
The State can place a lien on the house if the father is on the title.
You need to review the title to the real estate with an attorney. If your ex-husband's name is still on the title to your home then his half of that property is open to all of his creditors if he should default on any obligations. His paying the mortgage in lieu of child support seems like an unreasonable arrangement. You need a more skilled negotiator. He should convey his interest in the property to you and pay the child support to you as ordered. You could use that money to pay your mortgage. Your ex husband has too much control over your life. You need to step up and take charge.
The biological father is the legal father. The husband is not the father unless he decides he wants to claim that title and wants to raise this child. Slim to none on that one. More likely you are going to be a single parent, so go after the bio dad for child support. He owes his child that.

There is nothing legally that you can do with the house because it is under his mothers name. If the home was under his name then you would be able to get custody of the home because you would have right to half of everything that is his. The only thing that could be done is that if could be proven that he is the only one that makes the payments or that he is in the title then you can show that as evidence that he has funds to support you with allimony and give child support.
A woman who is told that the house that she lives in is not either hers or hers or her husbands can check this out at the Land Title Office. If her name is not on the title then the house is not hers, but, if brought into a court of law this sometimes can be changed as long as the husband owns the house.
You may be thinking of the remake of House of Wax.
The significance of the title of the play An Ideal Husband is that there is no such thing as a true ideal husband.
She will have to "quit-claim", come off the title of the home. An attorney will do this for you. But as soon as you refinance, she can be placed back on the title.
THEIR ARE ONLY 3 WAYS THAT THIS CAN BE DONE THAT I AM AWARE OF: 1. IF THE HUSBAND IS ALIVE AND HE IS AGREEABLE TO TRANSFER TITLE. 2. IF YOU HAVE POWER OF ATTORNEY FOR TITLE TRANSACTIONS FROM HUSBAND. 3. IF HE IS DECEASED THEN IT WILL REQUIRE DEATH CERTIFICATE OF HUSBAND.
