Before I began writing I worked as a Real Estate Broker. I can tell you from my own experience in the Macomb County, Michigan Friend of the Court experience that all you need to do is provide proof to the courts.
If you can get a copy of the downpayment check that should be proof enough that it was your ex's money. You need to check with the local government office where the house is located to see how the deed to the home is recorded. If your ex had the deed to the home put in his friends name if your ex passes that home will not revert to your child/children, unless they placed ownership on the deed with reversionary rights back to your child/children. In Michigan we call the County Recorders office. I am not sure what office it would be in your state, but a great place to start is the tax accessors office.
There is a big difference between a deed and a note. The note (mortgage) is what secures the debt, it is evidence of the debt. It does not matter who's name is on the mortgage, they do not own the home. The person/persons who appear on the deed are the actual owners of the home.
If your ex had the friend put his name on the deed contact him/her and let them know if they sell it you will give them half! Continue to check with the recorders office as it is easy to slip a Quit Claim Deed in without anyone knowing. This would then transfer the rights and ownership back to your ex, if he did this.
