You will have to remove the heads and have the block welded by a skilled welder or you may in the end have to purchase of a new block. The only other choice you have is to buy a used engine and just replace the entire engine. You can of course buy what is called a short block and use your old heads and manifolds.

How do you repair a blown head gasket or cracked head?

A blown gasket can be repaired by replacing the gasket...if you are talking about the head gasket, then you have to remove the cylinder head from the engine block and replace the gasket that is inbetween them. Cracked heads generally have to be replaced because they are made of aluminum which cannot be repaired permanently once it is cracked.
