I've been reading the AFM for the 777 and find it very confusing regarding F25 autoland. Can anyone out there clarify whether this is an approved autoland flap or not ?

Never heard F25 autoland is prohibited. but i am sure that F20 autoland is aproved. because a EO autoland is aproved and flap 20 is used for that.

From our AFM,
"Autolands can only be made using F20 or F30, with both engines operating OR one engine inop, assuming LAND 2 or LAND 3 annunciated"
Not sure why F25 excluded, but if you have the option of F20 or F30, then I guess you don't need F25. Probably saved on a lot of flight testing too!
