david,
this is the original score the composer sent me from finale. i used \markup { \normal-text "2. ×:" } (see snipped png).

the composer titled the piece "Piano Piece 3" so i don't think there should be a problem using english. i'll see what he thinks…
If the title is English you surely can write "2nd time only" as Phil
suggested.
