Should not the gas line have 3 feet clearance from the panel boxes , air conditioner unit, and the A/C disconnect boxes?

Also, would your recommend clearance between the bottom of the gas line and grading?

The 3 foot rule is from the gas vent regulator to electrical boxes, A/C units, communications boxes, and the like.

You might have an issue with the gas line running above the electric meter and boxes. Don't have my code book in front of me, as you might have a dedicated space issue above the panels, I'm not sure if that applies to outdoor equipment. The local utility might have issues with it, could give them a call.
