A big pipe wrench and heat. Maybe penetrating oil but I don't have much faith in penetrating oil. I don't know that I've ever had it actually penetrate. But I'll use it if I'm desperate.
If that doesn't work, saw the pipe off with only 3/8" of the pipe sticking out of the end of the fitting on the pump. Saw a slot in the pipe from the inside of the pipe using a hacksaw blade. Once you're almost through the pipe and only have the threads left to saw, use a cold chisel and hammer to fold the cut in the pipe to the inside. Once you do this and effectively make the pipe diameter smaller, it can be turned out with any wrench.

Get red hot, then pour cold water on the pipe and wait to cool then remove with pipe wrench

Oil will penetrate rusted threads, just like sweat soldering a pipe joint. Heat till the penetrant oil smokes but don't burn off dry. Spray till it stays wet. Then repeat. 50/50 ATF Acetone is the machinist chosen home brew.
you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!
