The yellow cake like stain is the ammonia mixture from the cooling unit leaked out. The circuit board would not cause that.
To confirm that the cooling unit is fried you coud unplug your heating element from the circuit board and rig up a 2 prong plug on the end to plug directly into an outlet and if the element is good it will start heating the tank. You will know within an hour if it's ok. That yellow only comes from one place and that's the cooling unit. When it's fresh it has a distinct ammonia smell.
