Make a PDB file with the intial coordinates you want, putting a "TER" card
between each monomer. Then use loadPdb in LEaP to read this in (after reading
in the prepin file you have for the monomer). The monomers should be
recognized, and the TER card will prevent LEaP from trying to make any
covalent bonds between monomers.

....good luck...dac
