Can't find gas shutoff valve for stove
Is there someway this connection acts as a shutoff valve? It's kind of strange the house is only 10 years old and I'm replacing the oven that was here when I bought it. I included a picture of where the line from the stove connects to the gas.

Pictures so small I can not see much.
By code there should be a shut off someplace within sight between the stove and where it connects to the back of the stove.

I don't see anything. Here is a link the the larger picture. I couldn't get it to show here without making it small.

From your pic no gas valve. one can be added very easy. Need to shut off meter and such.
Call a plumber. should be inexpensive.. I would estimate abot $200. have the plumber include the new stove installation, with new gas whip flex line..

Since you asked if there was a valve and there obviously is not, I agree with Mike to call a plumber. However, to add a valve is not a big deal and normally could be DIY install. But that's how you learn!
