Which results in this,

I've tried fiddling with #indent# but I realize now, that's not it's
purpose.
Any thoughts how to get the subsequent lines to indent to the position
of the first in the selection?
If I were doing this, I would let the clipping do its thing first.
Then I would do a find and look for "\t{soc}\t" which would find the
first line (\t is the special symbol for tab). Now enter a find for
\r with a replace of \r\t into the find replace menu. This says to
add a tab to the start of the next line (\r is end of line). Now go
Find to get the the end of the line. Doing a Replace&Find at this
point will add the tab to the next line and go to the end of that
line. Repeat the R&F until you are at the line above the <tab>{eoc}
and you are done with THIS block. If you have more blocks in the
file, repeat from the beginning with the find for the {soc}. This
might be able to be automated but doing this manually could meet your
needs.
I apologize for not giving you an automated/automatic method but
depending on how many times you need to do it, this may be enough. I
leave it for others here who are more tuned into how to automate to
provide an alternate method or to turn these steps into an automation
script (or text factory).
