For posterity (read only if you are looking for a custom answer):

I noticed that using the :latex-header option in 
org-preview-latex-process-alist, disables the regular heading (created 
through org-format-latex-header, may be?). It replaces the heading 
(document class, packages, etc.) with whatever the :latex-header line 
states. This possibly means that one could create a custom _full_ header 
(with document class, any other package and customisation), and load it 
by means of :latex-header to see previews and exporting to ODT. This is 
just an idea. I hope it helps someone.
