I was under the impression that this was not one of the "main" elements
(C, N, O, H, or S). If OA is properly recognized as an oxygen, this
error should not occur. Here is the relevant code from sander's
mdread.F90 in Amber 12:

            if (atomicnumber .eq. 7) then
               x(L165-1+i) = 1.55d0 + 1.4d0
            else if (atomicnumber .eq. 6) then
               x(L165-1+i) = 1.70d0 + 1.4d0
            else if (atomicnumber .eq. 1) then
               x(L165-1+i) = 1.20d0 + 1.4d0
            else if (atomicnumber .eq. 8) then
               x(L165-1+i) = 1.50d0 + 1.4d0
            else if (atomicnumber .eq. 15) then
               x(L165-1+i) = 1.80d0 + 1.4d0
            else if (atomicnumber .eq. 16) then
               x(L165-1+i) = 1.80d0 + 1.4d0
            else if (atomicnumber .eq. 12) then
               ! Mg radius = 0.99A: ref. 21 in J. Chem. Phys. 1997, 107, 5422
               ! Mg radius = 1.18A: ref. 30 in J. Chem. Phys. 1997, 107, 5422
               ! Mg radius = 1.45A: Aqvist 1992
               x(L165-1+i) = 1.18d0 + 1.4d0
            else
               write( 0,* ) 'bad atom type: ',atype
               call mexit( 6,1 )
            end if ! atype(1:1) == 'N'

If this is indeed an oxygen atom and is recognized as such (i.e., its
atomic number is assigned to 8), then it should never hit the "bad atom
type" code path...
