Leaking caps, ECU ruined?

I just aquired a 91 Eclipse GSX. The car hardley runs. It idle surges between 100-2000RPM's. When driving the stock boost gauge shows full boost at anything over about 20% throttle., causing the car to run extreamly rich and load up. I did a compression test and it has 125-140 in all 4. Next I checked the ECU for leaking caps.

Well, they're leaking, my question is; Have they leaked for too long? The board is blackened around the caps. I already ordered the caps to replace them, but I'm worried the board might be shot. I tried getting a couple pics, sorry for the lack of quality. My $150 cammera shows its shortcomings on the closeups.
