Read first the UUCP info pages on how to set up UUCP over TCP. Make in work without the SSH tunnel. Then create an account on your server that has, say, /bin/cat as shell, and make sure you limit the resources it can consume (to limit any DoS possibility). As last step, on the client, modify /etc/uucp/sys and add: address 127.0.0.1 and create a script that: ssh -l account -L 540:server:540 server calls uucico kills ssh. Hope it helps. Note I'm using UUCP over TCP, which works fine, ssh port forwarding, which works fine too, but have never combined both. Regards.
