Which is the way I do it also. I have the following in my emacs-init.org
file (that Tangles to my actual Emacs init file)

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle yes
  (add-to-list 'el-get-sources '(:name exec-path-from-shell))
  (let ((exec-path-from-shell.el
"~/.emacs.d/el-get/exec-path-from-shell/exec-path-from-shell.el"))
    (when (file-exists-p exec-path-from-shell.el)
      (load exec-path-from-shell.el)
      (require 'exec-path-from-shell)
      (when (memq window-system '(mac ns))
        (exec-path-from-shell-initialize))))
#+end_src
