Can smell gas after oven is off . Took oven apart and found small amount of gas leaking from gas orific ! This is the 2nd gas valve in 5yr, aprox. stove is LP and has 2 regulaters on tank line and the one on the stove that has a lever shut off that has to be used to keep from leaking ! It works OK when on but dosnt shut compleatly off ! Another Gas valve?? This is geting costly !!

If the gas is indeed leaking out from the orifice, then that is after the valve and I would guess the valve to be the problem. Gas leaks can be a hard thing to pinpoint, especially in an enclosed area without the help of something besides your nose to do the searching. But if you have found the exit point, sounds like you already know how to replace the part.
