Grammar
"I would do it but it wouldn't have nothing to do with that"
Or is it "I would do it but it had nothing to do with that"?

Well, your subject-line sentence is wrong, since it contains a double negative. However, the sentence within your post is correct grammar but a different structure. Since I don't know what the sentence is talking about, I cannot comment on the appropriateness of your choice.

So would these be correct?
"I would do it but it would have nothing to do with him"
"I would do it but it wouldn't have anything to do with him"
Or do I have to use "had" or "doesn't" in the place of the second 'would'?

Those sentences are grammatically correct; your last suggestion are probably not.
