    Can anyone please advise as to how I can undo this clip ? I've circled it in red and the other pic shows the clip from beneath.

    I'd rather not cut it. It's in the fuel pump assembly.

    Looks like a cam clip so beloved of car manufacturers. The centre section (ringed in red) can be eased up with a small screwdriver and in so doing the lower portion will allow the outer legs to close up. The entire thing will then lift out

    search for plastic rivet clips and buy some then it wont matter if you bust yours.
    You can get packs with different sizes
