Would is right because it is a futuristic sentence but its meaning is changed because of yesterday, "will" can use for only the next step future.

Yes, it is a conditional sentence so use would instead of will.
Because it was his choice after knowing the condition wants to help him or not.

If I had known this yesterday, I would have helped him.
Here "will" replaces "would" because of structure.
If+sub+had+v3, sub+would have+v3.

This sentence should be conditonal perfect that means present/future time actions.
Ex: If you had spoken, they would have beleived you.

The sentence is formed as past tense.
"Will" is future tense, "Would" is the past form of "Will". That's why the sentence is wrong.

"I will have helped" future tense and the first part of the sentence is past so we must maintain the tense of whole sentense.

"Will" talks about the action which will happen in future surely. But "Would" talks about the action which has uncertainty.

It is one of the conditional clause. So according it "ayinatlithe ani vasta" we need to use would, could, should, might.

Is sentence is (past tense). Then, future of this sentence will be also (past tense).
Eg; will past tense is would.
