Can you do 3f{ this way ?
Don't know if this is relevant, but you can do similar movements with ]}

Re: comment out block for perl program

There is of course the generic way with visual-block-mode, see :help visual.txt Basically it involves using C-v, highlight what you want to comment and hit I#Esc. Highlight the # chars and use x to delete them when uncommenting. Other than that The NERD Commenter[1] looks pretty promising, haven't used it much yet though.

If by buffer you mean what the Vim docs call a register, see :help c_CTRL-R. If you mean part of a file being edited, IMHO the easiest way is to yank it beforehand into a register, though in some cases you can use the expression register (Ctrl-R =) with e.g. expressions such as getline(.)
