Leap uses the unit only for topology information, and atom positions when
atoms are missing. If you are loading a pdb file the atom positions as
specified in the pdb file will be used and the coordinates of the individual
unit will be ignored.

You need to make sure that the residue name, atom names and atom ordering in
your pdb file match those in the monomer unit you created. If they do then
you shouldn't have a problem.
All the best
