Legal Question in Family Law in California

Legal Rights for Blood Father

If a man finds out that he is the blood father, through a paternity test, to a child who is in Foster care, but another man signed the birth certificate of that child (thinking he was the father), can the birth certificate be changed or ammended? And does the actual Blood Father have rights to the child?
