Well, if you could put up a few photos of the compartment and the
connectors I could help you identify what kind of battery they use. If you
can connect a DC voltmeter to the battery connectors, and measure the
charge voltage, that will help narrow it down very quickly.

Btw, gel-cell is just a particular brand of sealed lead acid battery.
