I know finding the capacity spec is easy, but you'd be surprised how 
many folks neglect looking. <G>

For a pilot runner look at any old furnace with multiple burners.. Th 
gas comes on, fills a small tube or strip with controlled "leakage" at 
some spot along this strip is the plot. the strip lights off and runs 
the flame to the burners which by now are spewing gas. Time proven and 
simple. As long as there is gas there is a live pilot and runner.
The sensor on an intermittent ignition furnace the sensor usually pics 
up the signal off of the runner.

With this arrangement the pilot and sensor would be out of harms way on 
the forge..
