I use something like (this is pulled from a score I recently set):
\markup\small\italic { "D.C. al " \raise #0.8 \musicglyph #"scripts.coda" }

Try this:
\mark
\markup
\line
\general-align #Y #CENTER {
\bold \large "D.S. al"
\musicglyph #"scripts.varcoda"
}
and see if that does what you want. You can make life easier by doing:
varCoda = {
\mark
\markup
\line
\general-align #Y #CENTER {
\bold \large "D.S. al"
\musicglyph #"s

Try fiddling with
\raise #1.0
and
\hspace #1.0
