It looks like one of the pipes going to the cooler on the IRD [transfer box]. I looks like it is made of a different material than the one beside it. I think you should replace it with a Land Rover part.
 
Its a power steering hydraulic hose. All left hand drive Freelanders have the same flat spot, I dont know if UK ones are the same.
Its normal, dont worry.
 
same flat hose on power steering here ..

The hose is made flat. When you buy a new one, it is already flat. I think it's that way to absorb hydraulic noise from the system.
