Never one to be above sacrilege, here's my quick shot at this:

Doesn't look too bad, but it probably could be improved with an escutcheon
similar to the removed meter and perhaps a 1/4 inch build-out so it matches
the height off the panel of the Carrier Level meter.  The Hour Meter is
about 2-1/4 inches deep so it j-u-s-t clears the IF deck, so some build-out
would help there too.  Needless to say, I used a spare panel for this test;
no running R-390A was desecrated.

The example meter runs off 120 VAC 60 Hz.  I have a few of these NOS meters
somewhere in my storage locker(s) so if anyone is serious about installing
one, contact me off list.

Happy New Year to all and thanks for all the interesting contributions to
the list!

It would seem almost sacrilige to tear out the line level meter to put in a
clock but with some rework, the line level meter could serve many other
functions that are important to the operation of the R-390A
