Scott, take a torch and heat the pipe and a little bit of the block. It don't have to be cherry red. After you've done this for a while, take a candle and stick it to the pipe.

You may want to get a tap and chase the threads to make sure they're clean. I've done this to mufflers and pipes that I couldn't move with a pipe wrench before, but could remove with pliers after.
