   Are there encrypted timestamps in X.509?  If so, what format do they use?

Sort of.  Certificates (which are signed not encrypted) do indeed use
UTC times.

Certificate ::= SIGNED SEQUENCE {
	signature		Algorithmidentifier,
	issuer			Name,
	validity		Validity,
	subject			Name,
	subjectPublicKeyInfo	SubjectPulicKeyinfo}
	Validity ::= 
		SEQUENCE {
			notBefore	UTCTime,
			notAfter	UTCTime}
	SubjectPublicKeyInfo ::=
		SEQUENCE {
			subjectKey	BIT STRING,
			algorithm	Algorithmidentifier}
	Algorithmidentifier ::=
		SEQUENCE {
			algorithm	OBJECT IDENTIFIER,
			parameters	ANY DEFINED BY algorithm
					OPTIONAL}
