The easiest way is to add freon and an oil with a dye additive and use a florescent light and yellow goggles to pinpoint the leak/leaks........

How many pounds of freon for a 1997 Honda Accord se?

There is no Freon in a 1997 Honda Accord. It contains R134a refrigerant. If it is low of refrigerant you have a leak. It is illegal to add refrigerant to any system with a leak without first repairing the leak. The professional who repairs the leak will recharge the system and check to make sure there is sufficient oil in the system. Not a repair for a novice.
