maybe try something like the following

# -*- org-babel-post-tangle-hook: '(my-tangle-hook-function) -*-

where `my-tangle-hook-function' is defined in your .emacs config.

The info link I posted should explain how to evaluate a snippet of
elisp, once you have that working (you could test with simple calls to
the `message' function) you can use the `sbe' function (see it's
documentation) to evaluate named code blocks.
