Is <div class="h1">Heading here</div> seen by search engines the same as <h1>Heading here</h1>, or can I use it to maintain h1-looking css while making search engines ignore it?

This is where I'd refer you to your programmer ...but I'd also ask what it is you're trying to accomplish, to help me better understand the question.

I'd like to go through and simply remove the tags from the themes but doing so breaks some visual styling. I'd like to change instances of <h1>thing</h1> to <div class="h1">thing</div> so that the visual style stays the same but those parts are not treated as duplicate content by search engines. Eventually someone will go through all of the pages affected by these themes and put in proper h1/2/etc tags based on the actual page content, but that's someone else's job and there's a lot of pages.
