Here are what I can think of:

'execute block' is dynamic so you can change your sql without updating the
database, but it's not compiled.

Stored Procedure is an object defined in the database, changing it may
require an exclusive access to the database if other connections have
used/'cached it. It's compiled so will be slightly faster.
