Hi, have you tried Gravity Box Xposed Module to make the changes? The Xposed framework can enable you to center your Android clock.
Gravity Box is the most comprehensive and easy to use tweak tool for AOSP. If your ROM is heavily customized, there is a slim chance that it might not work. Centering the clock sounds like a simple tweak so I'm pretty sure you'll be able to do it.

My understanding is that this was formerly done in the SystemUI APK.
Once decompiled, it should be here: DECOMPILED_DIR/res/layout/status_bar.xml
Is this no longer true for KitKat?

I don't know if they changed how KitKat works (I doubt they did because why fix something if it's not broken?). What I do know is that there is an Xposed module made specifically for centering the clock on the status bar. If the OP cannot live with the RAM-hungry nature of Gravity Box, he should try to look for the XML scripts from people who understand how the Xposed module works. I'm pretty sure the module uses some scripts to work. If it does, the OP should try to find them.
