Changed the front sprocket

Right, I've just been outside and changed the front sprocket on the bike and only managed to strip one thread

The stripped thread is the one that holds the sprocket cover in at the top. The bottom one is fine but in my hamfisted gorilla approach I did the top one too tight and it just kind of spins in there now - doh! What can I do to fix this?

Secondly, I've adjusted the chain and done the rear axle nuts up to 33Nm - is this right? I seem to remember hearing 77Nm for somewhere but can't place it.

And thirdly, I know the idea is to line up each adjuster on the back inline with the markings so each side is the same but it doesn't seem right when I do that. It seems like the wheel is out of line and not straight. Trust the markings and get on with it?
