You could try a recent hack of mine.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% cheap alternative to \new Score;  fragile wrt. Y positioning
pseudoIndent =
#(define-music-function (parser location indent) (number?)
#{
   %    \once \override Score.BarNumber.X-offset = #(- indent 2)
   \once \override Score.LeftEdge.X-extent = #(cons 0 indent)
   \once \override Score.LeftEdge.Y-offset = 0
   \once \override Score.LeftEdge.stencil =
   #(lambda (grob) (stencil-whiteout-box
   (ly:make-stencil empty-stencil  (cons 0 indent) (cons -3 3))))
#})
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Apply at the line break  eg  \break \pseudoIndent #77
