If there is any compulsion to do a work then we use like.
have/has to,
is/are to,
was/were to
will have to ...etc.
Ex. (if you don't want to go to school but compulsory you have to go to school every day then use ->)I have to go to school.
Like that The given sentence showing to use. The person has compulsion to do help.So there should use"I will have to helped him." instead of "I will have helped him."

Using if clause:
Unreal condition:
In the sub-ordinate clause----had+v3
In the main clause -------would/could+have+verb3
Example:
If I had studied well, I would have passed.
