Pietro: OpenSSL seems to provide add, double, invert and multiply routines for EC points. There does not seem to be an explicit routine for subtract in the include files.
The book "Implementing Eliptic Curve Cryptography" by Michael Rosing has routines esub and poly_esub for doing a subtraction of two EC points depending on the type of underlying curve. Essentially these routines first perform a negation of the subtrahend followed by an addition.
