Hello, Thanks for reporting. I've just fixed this issue in master (commit 6149b6cb6).
The problem was that ob-python adds tab indentation to the code body before putting it inside a main() function, which adds spurious indentation to multiline strings passed through :var. I fixed the issue by moving variable assignment from the code body to the code preamble, which is executed outside the main() function.
