>>Are fat deposits common?



An inch behind the head of a python? No.



>>If not a fat deposit what else might it be?



You didn't specify where on the neck this lump is. An abscess is always a likely suspect. Perhaps a fractured rib if on one of the sides.



Of course, if it immediately disappears like the other lump you mentioned, then that is the best kind of lump, so no need to worry.
