Hi John,

One way to do this might be to name the source code block and then use
an #+CALL: line.

#+name: clean-up
#+begin_src R :exports code
  dev.off()
  tools::texi2pdf("file.tex")
#+end_src

.... 


#+CALL: clean-up() :exports none

This way, the original code block will be exported and subsequent calls
should not be.

hth,
Tom
