I think you're looking for the "NHE" residue.
it should work ok if your pdb file has the matching residue and atom names.
if not, you can rename them following the info below:

   NHE INT 1
   NH2 ENDING GROUP
   4 N N M 3 2 1 1.335 116.600 180.000 -0.46300
   5 HN1 H E 4 3 2 1.010 119.800 0.000 0.23150
   6 HN2 H E 4 3 2 1.010 119.800 180.000 0.23150
