Mike, you might want to consider placing the complete battery assembly in a plastic bag before inserting into the original Philco battery case. This way, if any of the cells should leak in the future, it will be contained and prevent any damage to the original case or the battery compartment.
I have seen too many alkaline AA and D cells leak unexpectedly to trust them without taking some precautions.
