The hole you screw the regulator in on the red propane cylinders is left hand.

Have a look on the nut on the regulator, it should have nicks cut on the corners of the flats to denote a LH thread.

As rtbcomp says the regulator thread on the valve is left-hand, but if you are wanting to remove the whole valve for making a log burner or BBQ etc the valve is screwed into the bottle with a normal right-hand thread,
