Have a look at the rsync man page and read about the '--exclude' option. You should be able to use that to do what you need.

if I have src1/src2/src4 under /tmp/src1 and I don't this to be rsynced, then exclude src1/src2/src4 from the process:

rsync -avz --exclude=src1/src2/src4 /tmp/src1 /tmp/dest1/

or have an exclusions file and put your list of exlusions in there, then have --exclude-from="name of your exclusions file"
