I know this is a problem with the space in the file path but I thought the "" would pass to the commandline with no issues but I am wrong.
True. The problem is in the last line: your definition of "X" is ok, since the space is protected there (try removing the double quotes and you will get an error if you remove the escape "\" too). But when your script gets to the last line it first replaces "$X" with its contents and only then executes the line. This is "ls" is presented two parameters, separated by a space (which was no longer protected) the first and the second part of "$X". "ls" is fine with getting two paths, but these two paths, "/Library/Users/Application" and "Support/" do not exist, hence you get two errors, one for the first missing path and one for the second.

build-lives-rfx-plugin(1) General Commands Manual build-lives-rfx-plugin(1)NAME
build-lives-rfx-plugin - builds rendered effects for LiVES
SYNOPSIS
build-lives-rfx-plugin script_name [plugin_dir] -get section file
DESCRIPTION
This perl script is used by LiVES to compile an RFX (rendered effect) plugin for LiVES. It is generally called from build-lives-rfx-plugin-
multi for a script which has a language code representing LiVES-perl. The script_name must be the full (absolute) path to the plugin
script, and plugin_dir can be used to specify the output directory where the compiled plugin should be generated. If plugin_dir is not
defined then /tmp is assumed.
The second variant with -get is used to print out a script section from a plugin script to stdout. It is generally only used internally by
LiVES.
Return values The script returns the following values
0 - success 1 - the value of a trigger was greater than the number of parameters 2 - a value could not be read from the script file 3 - the
language code of the plugin script was not equivalent to LiVES-perl 4 - the API version level of the plugin script was invalid 5 - the
<define> section was missing from the plugin script
