You could write a code block which when executed wraps the file's
contents in a code block which is then inserted into the Org-mode
buffer. For example if your external file is named foo.c and holds C
code the following
#+begin_src sh :exports results :results raw output
echo "#+BEGIN_SRC C"
cat foo.c
echo "#+END_SRC"
#+end_src
will insert its contents into the buffer during every export.
