I gave the gas turnoff end one more shot and got it off. Of course I had purchase a fresh flexible pipe kit with sealant and adapters all in one bag designed for dryers and it fits the dryer fine but it turns out my gas connection pipe is oversized (so was the old flexible pipe) so it is back to the big box store again. The previous installer put the size converter at the dryer end but it seems to me that it makes more sense to put it at the turnoff where it will suffer few vibrations and I can use the narrower flexible hose.
