Not sure just what we are planning, but if you were going to add R12 you should use the low side. If ,however, you are planning to switch over to R134A you will need to remove the compressor to drain the oil out anyway and maybe then you can make some changes if necessary. This may be more than you want to get into, I don't know.
The lo side port should be on the low side line somewhere, you just need to trace it until you find the port.It should be between the evaporator outlet line and the compressor.

Yep, traced the line from the compressor up over the top and all the way to the other side.

That looks to be between the comp and condenser, that would be the HP port.
All OE lines?
Less desirable option,, you could pull the cycling switch, and if your adapter installs on the port, S/B 7/16 male same as the low/ suction port, and bridge the low/cycling connector to run the comp and pull in a 'light' measured fill at the switches shrader connection. Add a little at a time re installing the switch and checking cycling pressure on the high side.. Not as accurate as watching both gauge values..
I thought it was on the overhead lines near the air cleaner top, but if it's not on the accumulator body, near the Evaporate case, or a line extending back to the comp, anyone's guess...

All OE lines. Maybe I will just quit on it. I have two kits. On one the fitting that fits the recharge hose screws on the port in the picture. In the other kit, the fitting that works on the recharge hose, is too big to screw on that port. How are you supposed to know?
That port is between the condenser and compressor, so is that the high port?
