Do it the other way round: generate the key on the EC2 instance, and then export the public key. It is safe to put the public key unencrypted into attributes, or use any other mechanism you like.

I’m trying to find a generic, scalable way, to install an SSL private key onto an EC2 instance.
Is it possible to have a more detailed explanation on what your problem is ?
As is I can’t tell what you try to do…
