Can you tell me the correct way to say this sentence,

I could have told you. Would it be "podria haberle dicho" or Habia podido dicho

Also heard in conversation "yo te lo podría haber dicho".

That's the conditional perfect tense. This is no doubt complex, as there are so many other rules to apply here at the same time. I would say...

Yo podría habértelo dicho. - I could have told you.

Yo habría podido decírtelo. - I would have been able to tell you.

This is my attempt "Te pude haber dicho".

I'd say: "Podría habértelo dicho" or simply "Podría haberte dicho"
