22mm Pipe Clips
 

I guess the sunlight has effected the clips holding my gas pipe to the wall
and the snap over clips have broken.

Unfortunately the screwhole is central behind the pipe so to remove and
replace I need to risk easing the pipe out of the way. I am a bit wary of
this and would like to find a clip that has an off-centre fixing hole. The
existing clips are Talon brand.

any suggestions?

There are clips which have screws either side of the pipe, you just need
to find them. Try a specialist shop- plumbers' merchant- rather than the
DIY sheds. Chances are you will save some money as well.

I call them 'saddle clips' but I'm not sure if that is the proper name.

There are saddle clips & P clips, as well as other types. Old clips can be sawn or melted with care. Don't assume new clips will have the same spacing from the wall.

You might find that the pipe is still clipped in place even without the snapon cover.

Welcome to the world of crap, Plastic. Yep, that's what Plastic does,
regardless of being inside or out. You'll need Metal and it's all you
should've had to start with. For outdoors, only use Stainless Steel fasteners
and Straps (clips).

1-hole is the most user friendly and quite adequate if people aren't hanging
things from the pipe.

For something much more robust to abuse, use 2-hole.

Preferably, you want to remove the "talons" and gas-line is quite resilient.
But, pull the pipe away from the house or even wedge it out, instead pushing
it up or down.

Yes - perhaps I panicked a bit.

+1.

Also, if the clip is in the middle of a run you will normally be able to
"ping" the pipe out and move it over far enough to undo the screw. That
means you won't have to faff around drilling and plugging two new holes
close to a "live" pipe.

The pipe goes down the the gas meter - I was a bit wary of mauling it
around - but job done with similar clips.
