it's hard to tell whats wrong, but a battery should never get "hot".

i would highly recommend that you remove that battery from your iPod!

overheated batteries can not only destroy your device - a burning/exploding battery can cost life.

i would contact the seller and try to get a replacement battery - the one you got is definatly not ok
