Afaik you need babel only for stuff you want to be executed.

I use ``#+begin_src conf'' all the time and the only thing I do is to
assign a language name for LaTeX export (using the listings package)
-- also for ``text'' and ``org'':

;; add "text" and "conf" to latex-listings-langs with empty (space as
;; trick) language name to be used in the LaTeX listings package.
(add-to-list 'org-latex-listings-langs
             '(text " "))
(add-to-list 'org-latex-listings-langs
             '(conf " "))
(add-to-list 'org-latex-listings-langs
             '(nxml "XML"))
(add-to-list 'org-latex-listings-langs
             '(org " "))
