It is screwed into a coupler (maybe a union?) that goes through a piece of sheet metal, and the copper gas line attaches to the other end of the coupler. I don't know what type of fitting is between that hose and the coupler (maybe straight pipe with NPT threads?), but that would be a simple and easy spot to drop in a tee for your genny. Not cutting, bending, or flaring required. Just a wrench, and maybe some pipe sealant or gas-rated Teflon tape.
Dave - I had the same idea and am looking for the parts. Also, just behind that point on the "box" on my TM there is a loop of copper going toward the furnace in the slide that may be a good place to put the tee if I need to cut the copper. Thanks.
