Interesting...there is a format here called "Super A3" that is
essentially the same size: 330 x 483 mm; the rounding difference is so
it can be 13 x 19". That size is normally used here for poster
printing. If that's the production process you used for the magazines
we've seen, it would be possible to duplicate it at a US printer who
handles Super A3 size duplex printing with bleed trimming--without any
changes to your file at all. The 1mm differences should get lost in the
trimming.
13x19" duplex printing with trim isn't popular here, given it's mainly a
single-sized poster format. But it's possible one of the volunteer
printing services Josh was talking about might do that. It's a
different approach to the problem than has been considered so far,
that's for sure.
