надобно = потребно = надо (old-fashioned version)
надлежать = следует (also old-fashioned or very formal)

I don't quite understand what you meant by "a verb with incomplete declension, impersonal only?" but here are some examples, for a change:

Мне надобно три воза сена на зиму.
Ему надобно сорок рабочих для возведения башни.
(надобно = demand, need)

Вам надлежит прибыть в адмиралтейство завтра к 12 пополудни.
Нам надлежит блюсти порядок во вверенном нам хозяйстве со всем тщанием.
(надлежать = someone has been ordered to...)

A verb has conjugation (спряжение), a noun has declension (склонение). We conjugate verbs, and we decline nouns.
So, it should read "a verb with incomplete conjugation".

Yes, it is incomplete:

надлежу impossible
надлежишь impossibble
надлежит OK

надлежим impossible
надлежите impossible
надлежат impossible

present tense: Мне (тебе, ему, ей, нам, вам, им) надлежит.
past tense: Мне (тебе, ему, ей, нам, вам, им) надлежало.

It is impersonal only, it cannot have a grammar subject in Nominative.

Usage: Dative (to whom) + надлежит (надлежало) + infinitive (to do something).
