Thanks! I found that I can also assign an ID to the section, and then
use

# eval: (progn (org-id-goto ...some-id...) (org-babel-execute-subtree))

It looks like I need the progn for it to work reliably (don't know why).

I am wondering if it would be possible to break a line in Local
Variables, but

# eval: (progn (org-id-goto ...some-id...) \
#              (org-babel-execute-subtree))

didn't work.

Best,
