Any guidance or I or ideas, before I try to find an RV place. Attachment 28494

Hello Jake930;
We had a similar issue after driving a particularly bad washboard dirt road. One of the stove burners came loose from its support. The culprit was a small (almost tiny) "bolt" style screw. (The tip is blunt, not tapered like a real screw and the threads are fine, not coarse like a sheet metal screw.)
Fortunately the remaining burners gave me a clue as to what was missing. I was able to contact the stove manufacturer who shipped out a replacement. But my local Ace hardware also had a similar bolt which worked. Unfortunately I am not near my trailer so I can't take any photos. From memory, it was less than one-half inch long and slightly less than one-eighth inch in diameter.
Your best bet is to isolate the matching part in an intact burner and bring it to the best hardware store in town.
