I do this rotutinely without problems. I put all my #+ lines under a
heading named something like "Org config" and tagged with :noexport:. I
put it at the end of the file, where it is out of the way.
In fact I will stick my neck out and suggest that that should be the
norm for Worg files; in my opinion it is very ugly to start off a file
with a mass of technical configuration lines starting #+. The title,
author and date should be there; not most of the other stuff. Org is
about focusing on content.

I don't think that bit of LaTeX code is going to make it into your
exported output, because the heading is tagged :noexport:. The #+ lines
are fine though.
