what about using C-c ' ?

(also suggested by Dan Davison)

manual 11.3 Literal examples
C-c '
     Edit the source code example at point in its native mode.  This
     works by switching to a temporary buffer with the source code.
     You need to exit by pressing `C-c '' again(3), the edited version
     will then replace the old version in the Org buffer.  Fixed-width
     regions (where each line starts with a colon followed by a space)
     will be edited using `artist-mode'(4) to allow creating ASCII
     drawings easily.  Using this command in an empty line will create
     a new fixed-width region.
