I'm all for using existing solutions, but cannot see how I might use
this to easily customize export differently for different documents when
large amounts of LaTeX preamble code is being used.

I for long have defined my own LaTeX class (fp.cls file). It is quite easy to handle options in there.

Now I use it in place of article or beamer etc.

\documentclass[slides]{fp}

for a beamer org document

\documentclass[exam]{fp}

for a pdf exam document

and so on.

I don't think that it is very effective to store a huge amount of TeX code in org documents.

You end up in cuting/pasting these headers lines in each line.
