Melbourne, Australia???
You are in luck, because there are tons of Amiga enthusiasts here who know about leaky batteries.
I suggest you bring your machine to one of the usergroups here, someone will be able to look at it for you.
MAUG meets on the 1st and 3rd Thursday each month, 8pm in the Moonee Ponds Neighbourhood Centre, Kellaway Ave, Moonee Ponds.
AUG meets on the 3rd Sunday each month 2pm in the Moorabbin Arts Centre, next to the Moorabbin station.
In the meantime, check out my site, there is a link to some info about leaky batteries at the top.
