An email asking for help includes a greeting, the kind of problem, and the time to solve it. You should emphasize the task's priority.

I think the email should have greetings in the beginning and few informations about the subject that we work on after that introduce brief about the problem and what we need help for . Then ask about suitable time for meeting to discuss around the solutions
Finally thank him for help us.

I think the best way to ask for help is be kind and a little polite (depends of the situation).
I mean, we should start with a short greeting. Then tell him the problem and why his help is so important, so we can use someting like "Your job is amazing" or "you have strong skills on.." Finally we have to be flexible and thankful, so one way to respect his time is offer him some days to do it and finish with "we really apreciatte your help".

First thing that I should do is to introduce myself, add some greeting phrases to my mail, then I should explain my problem and say clearly what kind of help I need.
