If you go to your local appliance parts store, maybe even home depot, its such a common item, I'd bet that they have one in stock, its a ten minute job to replace.

Its probably the thermocouple. Its a bi-metallic element, if you look closely at where the pilot light it, it looks like a 3/32" tube, the other end screws in near the gas control valve. When the pilot light produces heat, the thermocouple generates an electrical current that allows the valve to open, its a safety feature, so that if there is no heat from the pilot light the gas doesn't flow endlessly.
