Any ideas on if I can clean this with a leather cleaner, it almost makes the black leather look whitish or light blue

I would start with plain water. Cover the Alcantara with something. I got a water stain on my Alcantara car seat one time. You could try APC diluted down to like 15:1.

@Oldfart is suggesting perhaps you had a hole in your pocket.

Jeez, I wonder how you got that mark on your seat!!! I would start with a damp towel and see if you can "rub it off". I must say, I don't appreciate having to look at an imprint of your *****!

Very funny haha, but I think it should come off with leather cleaner I haven’t tried yet but I gotta patch the holes in my pants first I guess

I don't know what kind of Alcantara you had but the stuff in the Raptor is bullet proof. Been wet plenty of times and still looks new. I wouldn't worry about water but I would be careful what kind of chemicals you use.
