I've created a clone part in POV-Ray, the .pov file for which is somewhere
around 1.3K.  I inlined it in a somewhat large .dat file (over 100K) and
used the superfantastic L3P -enp to convert the file to POV-Ray, but the
output file was 320K!


I think this is what you want to do:

0 L3P ELSEPOV
0 Ldraw version of file goes here

  Ah-ha!  This bit is the part that was messing me up! I wasn't leading the
LDraw lines with the 0 character.  Now the part converts to a 4.5K .pov
file!  Thank you very much for helping me work this out!
