I have a student whom I've taught for about 4 years now who has a repaired cleft lip. The only modification she's had to make is to have a fairly asymmetrical embouchure.
Depending on the way the lip is formed you will probably have to experiment with "alternative" positions. One of this student's middle school band directors always marked her down due to the asymmetry. I don't have a perfectly symmetrical embouchure either (due to a slightly chipped tooth) and I would have to look really hard to find anyone with a perfectly symmetrical embouchure.
Many of us hold the clarinet at different angles away from the body. Why should left/right symmetry be any different?
