In that case, you might want to use a template mechanism to enter the 
#+LATEX_HEADER with a minimum of pain. Org comes with an "easy template" 
system of its own:

  (info "(org) Easy templates")

but I had some trouble with the customization as detailed in another 
posting. Note by the way that you can use a string as a key: you are not 
limited to a single character. There are other abbrev/template systems also
if you find you don't like the org one.
