If I want to set up a pool heater...
...and run 1" black pipe from the basement to the outside, under the deck, above ground...
Generally no problem, with black pipe above ground, right?

Running black pipe for natural gas under the deck above ground

I have an early 1950s house in the western USA with a raised foundation, and it has gas pipes above ground in the crawl-space.
But your only way to know for sure is to ask the local code authority.
There's quite a bit of it on rural Nebraska. I think the gas companies would lay it on the ground if there was a fenceline. They would bury it if there was no fence.
As long as it is properly supported.
