Pineapple guava roots

Do pineapple guava trees have invasive roots? Trying to figure out how many feet from gas line I can plant a tree

Mine is relatively new so I can’t speak much from personal experience yet, but I don’t believe it spreads by root suckers or anything like that. The Growables website says:

Roots
Not a problem
Invasive potential
It is not considered a problem species

This Australian plumbing company recommends them to plant near drains or pipes because “feijoa trees have non-invasive root systems” that won’t block drains.

What is the maximum and the minimum distance from the gas line that you can place the plant?
