I'd strongly recommend upgrading to a current version.  Amber 8 was released
eight years ago, and the code and its force fields are quite out of date.

Use the "desc" command in LEaP to find atom and residue names in your unit.
LEaP numbers residues starting at 1, and it may have different numbers than
you think.

The current recommended protein force field is ff12SB.  You need an update.
