Now, with this second approach, would one have to do it at night? Way too
spooky for me. You might see ghosts you weren't counting on! Or, could you
just use a whopper electronic flash, combined with an umbrella to block
ambient sunlight? Re: the film, it might be advisable to bump the contrast
up, either at the film stage, or the printing stage.

I reckon that if you cannot get a readable impression using
rubbing techniques, then there is very little chance of getting a readable
record.
The only other approach which might help would be to
sidelight the markers with polarised light (light source passed through a
sheet of polarising filter) from LH side, RH side, top (and if practical,
bottom), and take photographs with very fine-grained film so that you get
maximum resolution.
Then blow up the prints and see what you can find.
Hope these ideas help (no practical experience I'm afraid).
Cheers
