One of these?


--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
   ## abc
   ## def
#+END_EXAMPLE

#+BEGIN_EXPORT latex
## abc
## def
#+END_EXPORT

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Upon export to latex they yield:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

\begin{verbatim}
## abc
## def
\end{verbatim}

## abc
## def

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
