The default value for org-babel-R-command is "R --slave --no-save", so
maybe adding the "--slave" option to your command will remove the R
preamble text.

As for your path problems, the "~" looks like a likely culprit.  The
command is passed to an equivalent of the `shell-command-on-region'
function, which then uses a shell to run the command.  Maybe the shell
it uses can't handle the tilde?

Best,

p.s., I'm jumping into this thread part way through and didn't read all
      of the back-log, so I apologize if I'm repeating previous advice.
