Found an old clock with overflown battery inside. How dangerous is this? Is the clock salvageable?

The battery has "Pb" written on it, so I assume it's lead battery.

Just clean it up. Wear gloves and a mask to prevent anything getting in your body. Just be careful about what cleaning products you use to prevent releasing dangerous gasses and do it in a ventilated room or outside. But I would recommend that for any battery or strong acid or base or other reactive chemicals, not just lead containing ones.
