You might try
\once \override Staff.Clef #'extra-X-extent = #'(-2 . 1)
\clef tenor
which would give you 2 more units of space to the left of the
clef symbol and 1 more unit of space to the right of the clef.
("tenor": sorry, I deleted so much e-mail that I've lost track
of what clef you actually wanted.)
I'm sitting at a non-LilyPond machine at the moment, so I can't test
that to verify it, but I've used similar commands to provide extra space
to the left or right of various musical graphic objects ("grobs").
