Question

Answer 1

You have the CloudFormer beta version in CloudFormation.

CloudFormer

I hope you just want the part of the AWS architecture, and not the EC2 operating system ''information''. For that the easiest way is create a image from the ec2, and load that in the cloud formation template after export using cloudformer.
