Hello, Can a teacher help me with those sentence?

Hello, I have got these question I'm not sure, will someone please correct these for me?

1 I never owe anyone money for a prolonged period of time. (is this native speak?)

2 My job is perfect but not as perfect as it would have been had I not had this task to do.

3 I went out in a sweat shirt. I thought i was going to be cold./ I went out in a t-shirt since it was sunny today.

4 What he would do/give to see her one last time. ( I heard do, but is give correct?)

5 If we had a full finger print, we'd have one match, but since we were only able to get a partial fingerprint, we have result from anyone whose prints match that quadrant. We have 300 potential matches (I heard this in a movie, but I don't know why they used from)

6 You need a dress short enough to see some thigh but not so short (as) to see you know what./that you would see you know what. (this I heard in movie without (as) but doesn't it soun't better with it?)


Thank you in advance
