Due to unbethought implementation "if" may work not so as you expect.
Probably, the only natural usage is:

if (...) {
return 403;
}

and

if (...) {
rewrite ... last;
}

The following examples

if (...) {
rewrite ... break;
}

if (...) {
break;
}

have may drawbacks.

As to "upstream", you do not need it for single upstream server and
using real host in proxy_pass allow to use default proxy_redirect.

With upstream you should add

proxy_redirect http://dev1.magazine.com:8000/ /;

because default proxy_redirect will be without port

proxy_redirect http://dev1.magazine.com/ /;
