You don't have to SEPARATELY distribute your code B under a different licence at all.

You can distribute your combined work and just say "A is GPL, therefore B must be GPL too. But B is also X-licence, if the recipient wishes to extract it and use it elsewhere".

It's then the recipient's responsibility to make sure he doesn't accidentally include A when he takes B code to use in his product C.
