I don't know that there's any standard, but
perhaps you could peruse the noteheads in the
EngraverFontExtras font and simply use something
you think invokes the idea of the technique you
want. Perhaps for exhale you could use a family
of "x" noteheads and for inhale use diamond
noteheads. That's just this
singer/arranger/engraver's take on it.
Whatever you do, performer/conductor's notes should be sufficient.
I'd also suggest tracking down a copy of
Schönberg's "Pierrot lunaire," to see how he
handled the Sprechstim.
