Default RX330 A/C line pierced- need help!

Hi-
Two years ago I had my 2004 RX330 radiator replaced. When the mechanic dropped the new radiator into place, he bent and pierced one of the air conditioning lines/pipes. I believe the line is made of metal and it is either under or under and behind the radiator. When I charge the A/C, all of the fluid eventually leaks out (within a few hours). Do any of you know what pipe/line I am talking about? I want to say that it is on the driver's side- but I can't be sure. It is also situated vertically near the radiator.

Also, it would help tremendously if I could find an exploded diagram of an RX330 or at least the cooling system so I can point the pipe out to my mechanic. Know of any?

Thanks-
Ann
