I would agree that 1 3/4" would be sufficient. Heat rises, after all. Make sure you secure the gas line to the counter in such a manner as it is impossible for it to contact the metal cooktop enclosure. I would be tempted to put a hard plastic sleeve of some sort there to prevent metal to metal contact. Just slightly paranoid when it comes to LP leaks.
Yea, copper to steel contact, with vibration, going down the road = Bad Idea! I'll put something in there just for some extra insurance, even if it's a brace to hold the tubing from moving. Thanks.
