I am in the process of removing the fuel pump but there is no movement in the left hand pipe (the white tagged one).

The other 3 pipes are fine and move easily.

Is there anything between the boot floor and the top of the fuel tank that the pipe might be caught on?
 
Not that I know of did mine recently and although tight they came out easily
I used a pair of long nosed pliers to squeeze the tongues at each side and pulled the pipe out
 
I guess you have detached it from the pump ok but it wont "move about" easily?
Sounds like its been trapped between the tank and the body, the pipes would have been renewed by LR under a recall, years ago. The LR dealer probably did the job in a hurry and trapped the pipe.

When I dropped my tank recently I found one of the pipes almost squashed flat, another had been "repaired" with a piece of rubber and a pipe clamp.

If you want to free the pipe you may have to drop the tank, but if you cant see any signs of leaks I probably wouldnt bother.
