You might want to check that point and mark are both inside the src 
block. Otherwise, the results are unpredictable.

Also note that:

ess-mode, python-mode, sh-mode and octave-mode already provide this 
capability (and a lot more) for R, python, shell scripts, octave/matlab 
and some other languages from the edit buffer.

`org-babel-demarcate-block' gives the user the ability to break up src 
blocks into smaller pieces so they can be run independently.

Best,
