I want to use those helper parts (http://www.holly-wood.it/ldraw/helper-en.html) on MLCad v3.4, but I don't know how to install them because that article was based on o,design MLCad, what can I do?

The best way is to put them in an addition folder "helpers" in your "unofficial" folder.
(<LDRAW Base directory>\Unofficial\Helper).
Then open you MLCad.ini (this is stored in your MLCad folder). Some lines before the very end of this file, you will find a section [SCAN_ORDER]
Just add a line with a new number:
note: X is a placeholder for your number here.
Restart MLCad. Maybe you have to set up your parts tree, that it shows the helper. (I'm not sure about this)
/Max
(<LDRAW Base directory>\Unofficial\Helper).
Then open you MLCad.ini (this is stored in your MLCad folder). Some lines before the very end of this file, you will find a section [SCAN_ORDER]

X = SHOW <LDRAWDIR>Unofficial\HelpersRestart MLCad. Maybe you have to set up your parts tree, that it shows the helper. (I'm not sure about this)

At least here this works.
My Scan Order section looks like:
[SCAN_ORDER]
1 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>P
2 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>plasticant\p
3 = SHOW <LDRAWDIR>Parts
4 = SHOW <LDRAWDIR>Unofficial\parts
5 = SHOW <LDRAWDIR>plasticant\parts
Please send yours, so we can see what might get wrong.
