The distributions you find at Maven Central date from the early days when enthusiasts populated Maven Central with 'good' things. Sadly these enthusiasts were disconnected from development teams and took on no responsibility for LTS. As an OCL developer, it was probably over five years before I realised that an embarrassment was available.
I have made various attempts to provide a better Maven support; see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=525996 but it is technology that I fail to understand. IMHO Eclipse provides OSGI Jars in a P2 repo and if there is a use case for a different flavour then, analogous to the unified SimRel P2 distribution, there should be a unified Maven distriubution using the same probably rather simple conversion tool for every SimRel P2 repo. Anyway the Bugzilla highlights how EF solutions seem to go obsolete so I'm glad I didn't spend more time pursuing them. A couple of correspondents made promising progress but not enough for me to take over.
Today, my understanding is that Tycho is a Maven Central tool that any Maven user can use and Tycho provides Eclipse P2 loading so it really shouldn't be difficult for a Maven user to use the SimRel P2 jars; it just needs an enthusiast to write the tutorial to demonstrate how easy it is. Anyway not really an OCL problem.
Sadly I have even less understanding of Gradle, other than an instinctive feeling that Maven, like Ant, as an XML-language, belongs back in the 1990s and anything that provides a real language ought to be much better. Once I see other Eclipse projects using Gradle with success I might look at it. At present I see many people struggling because Gradle doesn't seem to work right.

Something like this in the `build.gradle` file should provide OCL (and more) support:
apply plugin: 'dev.equo.p2deps'
apply plugin: "org.gradlex.java-ecosystem-capabilities"
p2deps {
p2repo 'https://download.eclipse.org/modeling/tmf/xtext/updates/releases/2.32.0/'
p2repo 'https://download.eclipse.org/modeling/mdt/ocl/updates/releases/6.17.1/'
p2repo 'https://download.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/validation/updates/releases/'
p2repo 'https://download.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/emf/builds/release/latest/'
p2repo 'http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/mdt/uml2/updates/5.5/'
install 'org.eclipse.ocl.pivot'
install 'org.eclipse.ocl.xtext.completeocl'
install 'org.eclipse.ocl'
install 'org.eclipse.ocl.xtext.oclstdlib'
install 'org.eclipse.xtext.util'
install 'org.eclipse.emf.codegen'
install 'org.eclipse.uml2.codegen.ecore'
// into (['compileOnly', 'testImplementation'], {
// https://github.com/equodev/equo-ide/blob/main/P2_MULTITOOL.md for more info
// })
// into 'implementation', {
// you can also use the catalog to specify p2 repos and install units for you
// https://github.com/equodev/equo-ide/blob/main/CATALOG.md for more info
// cdt()
// m2e()
}
