This was a typo in the original message it should be loadamberparams.

The frcmod file only describes the non-bond parameters and mass of the zinc.
It does not include the charge or atomic element of the zinc. You need to
follow the text in the original message you reference more closely. You need
to create a unit in Leap called ZNA and make the atom type ZN. Save it as a
lib file with saveoff. Then you need to change the zinc residue name in your
protein to be ZNA. Load leap, load the frcmod file, load the lib file then
load your protein.
Note, if you explicitly want to bond residues to the zinc then you will need
to also provide bond, angle and dihedral parameters in the frcmod file.
All the best
Ross
