Run two single-point calculations, using identical input coordinates, but
with the two different prmtop files. Are any of the components of the
energy the same? Do the differences suggest any ideas?
You can also use parmed to see all the force field terms involving any
subset of atoms (such as "M"). Do that with both prmtop files, and see
if you can spot differences.
Some combination of these ideas should help you find the source of the
difference between the two files. I note that you are using "O" (rather
than "OS" as the analogue of "os" is gaff. Maybe the prmtop file has
picked up some component of "O" (not in the parmchk file) that is quite
different from "os". [This is just a guess, since I don't know how much
you you cut out of the frcmod files.]
