I don't know any way to do this with the Org-mode LaTeX exporter  
(though there may be some way I don't know yet).

This might not be an option you want to follow, or something you have  
already thought about, but you could achieve your result using LaTeX  
source code blocks and then tangle, rather than export, your  
contribution.  This has the advantage that it is relatively simple to  
tangle different chunks, in case you are contributing to different  
parts of the paper.

#+source: chunk1
#+begin_src latex :tangle chunk1.tex
   This is chunk 1.
#+end_src

#+source: chunk2
#+begin_src latex :tangle chunk2.tex
   This is chunk 2.
#+end_src

Hope this helps.

All the best,
Tom
