Good!

No: LEaP is not really a model-building program. If you just give
a sequence of a linear peptide to LEaP, it can build an extended
conformation, which is sometimes useful (although not for cyclic
systems!). But generally, if you don't have a starting structure, you
need to create one, generally with some non-Amber program.
The distance geometry facility in NAB is one way to build non-trivial
structures. But you may want to use some more specialized program, suited to
cyclic peptides. If you have access to a solved structure of a peptide
similar to the one you are interested in, that might be a good starting point.
