Why not do a REAL burner area tune-up. A lot better than just using compressed air.
Most refrigerator owners manuals on older models covered what needs to be done. Suspect many newer ones just suggest taking it to a dealer. But you should be able to find instructions, or ask and we can post them.

Sorry, Didn't get back here till late today.
I had to make a new gas pipe from copper tubing. About $8 in tubing and fittings at Aubuchon hardware.
This looks doable. I assume flared ends and friction couplings?

When I replaced my old rusted out burner with the new style flare fitting I used the existing Al gas line and just flared the end. You can see from the above picture the "S" tube has plenty of length to it. I used a tube cutter and flare die both of which I had already. Chris Bryant's advise was very helpful on this project.
