Is this what you're trying to do?

music = {
  \slurDown e''8-1^\markup { \bold "#8"} \(
  \slurNeutral f-2( e f) fis-3 f-2( fis f\))
}

\score { \music }

Note that the slur marking ( comes *AFTER* the note you want the slur to start 
on — it's not like parenthesizing a formula.

Hope this helps.
Kieren.
