Need some advice regarding printer heads

Last March I changed my G2010 Colour ink head as it decided to burn out it's magenta and yellow heads. Fast forward one and a half year and day before yesterday the printer again decided to clog the magenta and cyan head. 
I tried cleaning from printer's control but it was still clogged.

After looking at some Youtube videos I decided to give it a manual flush with a syringe and distilled water+isopropyl alcohol (since most cleaners are made of that). Now I had installed and printed it and it started to print normally after that. I have also ordered a new Print Head as a backup.

Now the thing is since this was cleaned manually with a liquid like distilled water, is there any chance that it might leak from the top where the ink pipes connect or from the head area? I have checked it today and it was fine and have a reminder set to check it every few days.
