<< I notice that there was some corrosion in my battery tray.  This I know
 is due to spillage during autocrossing from the vent tube on the
 battery.  This is the second car I have found this on.  Even "sealed"
 batteries have vent tubes.  Is there an easy way to correct this on a
 daily driver? What about connecting some tubing on the vent and either
 vent down or get some sore of catch bottle that is resistant to the
 acid?

Get one of the Gel Batteries, such as Optima.  They won't leak 
in any situation.....they can be installed in any position.
