Who haven't we played for the longest time...?
In a senior competition amongst teams in the current top four divisions..?
My maths says Liverpool followed closely by Manchester City. Feel free to correct and add.

Re: Who haven't we played for the longest time.
I fear you have been imprecise in your question.
While I agree with you re: current league teams, there are others such as Bradford Park Avenue etc. that we haven't played for longer

Can't remember playing Liverpool since our Div 1 season.

A quick check suggests we have indeed played all 92 sides currently in the League. Haven't bothered checking if we've played them all *in* the League, or some are just via cup competitions.

Liverpool is correct then followed by Man City.
Few others that spring to mind:
Man Utd last in early 1975.
Middlesbrough last in 1978.
Chelsea not since 1982.
Watford not since 1982.
West Ham competitively last in 1987.
Our fixture with Derby this year was the first since 1985.

We'd never played Burton Albion until this season.
