Yes it will work fine. The battery is only used for the clock; this will not work anymore when the computer is turned off but you could replace the battery with a new one.

Make sure you thoroughly clean up the battery acid on your board too!

The 060 libs are really important. Without the libs the Amiga will crash a lot or may not even boot into WB AFAIK.

Look here for software:

I haven't done it myself but search the forum here for "battery acid" and you'll find some tips. It is a very common problem with 4000's.

You should clean all boards in my opinion. Maybe leaking capacitors in the gfx card?
