At the risk of being critizised by this mailing-list's QC department I
give you this (unedited) hint:

,----[ C-h v org-edit-src-content-indentation RET ]
| org-edit-src-content-indentation is a variable defined in `org-src.el'.
| Its value is 2
| 
| Documentation:
| Indentation for the content of a source code block.
| This should be the number of spaces added to the indentation of the #+begin
| line in order to compute the indentation of the block content after
| editing it with M-x org-edit-src-code.  Has no effect if
| `org-src-preserve-indentation' is non-nil.
