Yes, disassemble from the union, to the leak.

The white teflon tends to fall apart, and the small pieces clog gas
valves or orifices.

No, you're right. You have to back down from the union. And that
nipple on the T needs to point down. It's a trap sort of thing. There
is teflon tape for gas now if you prefer that. It comes in a yellow
roll. Not supposed to use the regular stuff but beats me why.
