Yes you should. So for case one each hc-c3-c-o dihedral term would considt
of the sum of two lots of the equation above. So if X is the dihedral angle
the contribution for each hc-c3-c-o set would be:
0.5*0.8*(1+cos(-x-0.0))+0.5*0.08*(1+cos(3x-180))
And for case 2 each c3-c3-n-c torsion set would be made up of a sum of 3
dihedral terms with the relevant parameters. Let me know if you can manually
match this up. If you find you are slightly off then email me directly and
we can go through an example.

The -ve multiplicity has no effect of the energy since cos(x)=cos(-x). So
since cos is a symmetric function so the -n makes no difference - hence the
reason it is used as a marker for doing the 1-4NB calculation.
I hope this makes sense.
All the best
