Good day,
After some DIY...
In[11]:=3D e1 =3D EllipticF[ArcCsc[2/Sqrt[4+Sqrt[-3+I*Sqrt[11]]*
Sqrt[(2/11)*(13+5*Sqrt[5]+Sqrt[78+74*Sqrt[5]])]]],
(1/22)*(27-7*Sqrt[5])];
In[12]:=3D e2 =3D EllipticF[ArcSin[Sqrt[(-7-Sqrt[5]+Sqrt[-2+6*Sqrt[5]])/
(-7+Sqrt[5]-I*Sqrt[2+6*Sqrt[5]])]],
(1/22)*(27-7*Sqrt[5])];
In[13]:=3D I*Sqrt[14/11-(2*Sqrt[5])/11]*(e2-e1)//N//Chop
Out[13]=3D 1.713309773856624`
Check:
In[14]:=3D NIntegrate[1/Sqrt[z^4+z^3+z^2-z+1],{z,0,Infinity}]
Out[14]=3D 1.7133097738564849`
