Another option is to add the clef to the edge of the repeat barline:

\once \override Staff.BarLine #'stencil =
  #(lambda (grob)
     (ly:stencil-combine-at-edge
      (ly:bar-line::print grob)
       X LEFT
       (grob-interpret-markup grob
        (markup #:raise 1 #:musicglyph "clefs.C_change"))
         ;; this is the padding between clef and barline
         0.5))
