Yes a Corsica would be the same, it is the same body.

The battery is a "Group 75" which is probably more than half of GM vehicles from 1971 to recent.

Since he lives in Sweden, he most likely does not have a wide selection of side-post batteries, since not a single European car uses those. They can be hard to get in these neighborhoods, you should search for a car parts shop specialized in American cars or hit the biggest parts store you can find, they may have one or two hiding on the corner.

With a shallow top post battery will work fine. I've have better reliability with top posts over side mount batteries. Remember to use a shallow battery when using a top post in a L body. The hood shorting out on the battery terminals is not a good day.
