Propane, or natural gas, maybe acetylene, or some kinda mix like map gas or propylene. Lots of different mixes but each has its own burn rates and heat outputs.

Or said yet another way, not my words but copied
"Various gases such as acetylene, natural gas, propane, propylene and hydrogen can be used as a fuel for cutting and welding, heat treatment, as power and energy for transportation and combined with oxygen, for various industrial processes."

In general, any flammable gas is fuel gas. There are many types. There are advantages and disadvantages with each.

Including fart, but it's so hard to see what you are welding.
