Your symbol has 5 or 8 pins? The one big pad has what pin number?
I'd do a footprint/symbol with 8 pins, connect them on the
schematic,
and draw poly across the connected pins on the layout. I don't know
if
the poly clearance can be reduced to zero, of if you need to draw
thermals to the poly, or a fat line, depending what you need.
