I've read that:
"The verbs hear, see, make and help are followed by the to-infinitive in the passive"
I heard him cry.
He was heard to cry.
(but: I heard him crying ---> He was heard crying)
I've never seen an example with help in the passive.
Should it look like that:
I helped Tom (to) draw a cat.
Tom was helped to draw a cat.
