I don't know how to space an explict staffsymbol vertically, but you
could take another approach, see:

http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=701

What this shows you, is how to make a 'markup' using a score
construct, you could then use this and pad your markup accordingly
instead of using an ossia.

Just another idea.
