Quoted from bigehrl:correct me if i'm wrong, but shouldn't he clean it with vinegar to neutralize it? genuinely curious...
Yes, you need an acid to clean the alkaline. Vinegar was typically recommended, but Zep is more acidic and does a better job at removing it (and make sure to wear gloves when handling it).
However, in this particular case, it look like the leakage didn't go beyond the holder, so I would suggest just cutting the holder off the board with a pair of nippers and then going with one of the battery replacement options.
