What AN form is referring to the tax office reference which is employer reference usually found on payslips/P60s...but may be sometimes on HMRC letter if you due a refund of tax or something.
It's usually in the format XXX/YYXXXXX
where first 3 numbers are tax office area code

Anyways, you need to either provide reference number or address and not required to provide both.

Yes, you need to provide the most recent one.
I hope you received P45 from your prev employer and submitted a copy to your new employer.
You can also mention both the ref numbers if you have just recently changed job....will do no harm.
As long as a correct NI number is provided, HMRC can trace all tax records - so nothing to worry.
