goto a shop a buy some CRC LECTRA CLEAN
it comes in an aerosol or a tin.. get the aerosol and just spray the hell out of your alternator as mine was leaking onto mine and it decided to start flickering the light on the dash at startup.. its now fine and has been for months YAY but if yours is well and truely buggered you will need a new one

I had to get mine replaced on the side of the road (as I was working at the time delivering parcels) ... I had NRMA rocking up and replace mine with a brand new one for $300 ... and that included labour as well.
The NRMA guy replaced it within 30 minutes as well.
