is there a liquid coolant that doesn't break components if it leaks?

 

Nope. All liquid coolants will damage components if they leak

“When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!”

- Cave Johnson, founder and CEO of Aperture Science, in Portal 2

Leaks are very rare to occur once you setup your loop and leak test for a day if your worried. As others have said no coolant is non-conductive or leak safe since it will pickup ions from blocks and metal components in the loop making it conductive over time. 

 

Mineral oil does work but is less efficient as straight distilled water and will require all rubber seals to be changed to silcone based seals since mineral oil eats away at rubber.
