We really can't advise too much since this is a safety matter and we really have no way to assess if you have a gas leak. I can't help you with how to go about it, its a matter of personal safety. Gas leaks will smell like rotten eggs, which comes from an additive put into gas simply to alert occupants to a leak. We have no option but to suggest you err on the side of caution, I just can't help you with how.
As for the heater - do yo mean a gas powered construction heater? I'm not entirely sure what you mean with a ventless heater so just checking. A gas construction heater is a pretty rudementary beast with a daunting flame coming out of it and without a doubt a hissing sound. But generally the gas is burned off, however it will leave a odor behind. I wish we could help more.
