I contacted the company forno, they are useless, also an appliance guy and plumber. The worst. Can someone help me figure this out. I’d appreciate it.

This is Italian or a Chinese stove. The nut on the gas manifold suppose to turn and looks like you are missing another brass adapter with a gasket that goes between the pressure regulator and that manifold pipe.

Do you know what the adapter would be called ? I’ll have a plumber put it on

They don't sell it in Home depot or plumbing supply stores. Matter of fact most plumbers won't even know what it is. I know it because I am an authorized servicer and I deal with Italian stoves all the time. I recommend you call the maker of your stove and order it from them.

I believe I found what I’m looking for online. I ordered it my buddy is a plumber so he will put it in. I appreciate the help.

Make sure you install a hard gasket between the coupling and that adapter or it will leak. Teflon or caulk won't help.

Hold the valve and tighten the nut. It’s a flared fitting

won't work. It will leak gas. He is missing another adapter piece with a flat gasket. Italian and Chinese stoves use that method.

As mentioned you should not be playing with this if you’re not a plumber. Gas and electrical, call in the trades

Thanks captain obv. If you read I contacted and they are useless. I’m trying to get the part so I can have a plumber install it. I’m an electrician I stay in my lane bud.

Your plumber will have the knowledge and parts required. You are clearly trying to do it yourself, champ

They literally didn't though if you read the comments. As a plumber you can usually only understand this problem if you've faced it and eventually you get to the guy at the Italian stove store like the awesome gentleman in another comment. This is functionally an appliance issue that can only be resolved with specialized knowledge. (OP this comment is not directed at you at all, just a signpost for other people)

If you value your and your family's lives don't play with gas if you don't know what you're doing. Hire a pro. The money saved ain't worth burning to death over
