Has anyone seen tap heads like these? Trawled the internet cannot find anything similar, after removing the grub screw I cannot for the life of me lift the tap head off tried prying with screwdriver but too scared to use excessive force and break the tap

Might need to be wiggled side to side. Try some lubricant of some kind or pouring boiling water on it prior to doing this.
