Suggest you don't replace the battery on the motherboard at all.

DSE stocks a few different 3.6v NiMH battery packs with
flying leads which are suitable. They coast about $10-$15.

NiMH batteries are far less prone to leakage, plus you can
mount the battery away from the motherboard anyway.

The end with 2 pins on the battery you have is +ve by the way.

Cheers,
Leslie
