Look at the win32com.server.util FileStream class.  Usage would be something
like:

from win32com.server.util import wrap, FileStream

f = open(filename, "wb")
fs = FileStream(f)
# Turn it into a "real" COM object.
fs = wrap(fs)
# Pass it to COM
pythoncom.OleSaveToStream(persist, fs)

Untested, but that is the idea.
