Default How to recharge AC?

I would like to know if anyone knows where the lowside-port is, so I can recharge the system. I have heard it is on the passenger side of engine comparment real close to the firewall, but I found two valves there. I subscribed to alldata and they show it is the lower and more difficult to get to valve, but I wanted to know if someone knew for sure.

After I add the sealer, is there a method to see if system is truly sealed before added the expensive refridgerant? I have a small AC gauge, but do not know which port to test and what the PSI should read.
