You need to use loop-AES version of losetup in your initrd.
Try copying a statically linked version of losetup to your USB-stick.
mkdir /stick
mount -r -t vfat /dev/sdb4 /stick
/stick/losetup -e AES256 -K /stick/key.gpg -G / /dev/loop0 /dev/sda3
^^^^^^^ ^^^^
To compile statically linked version of losetup, add this to util-linux
configure comand:
CFLAGS=-O2 LDFLAGS="-s -static" ./configure
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
