I'm sure having no belt would be considered crucial to the fact that the A/C does not work. How do you know you have a leak if it isn't running?

Start here ---> Does the compressor clutch and pulley spin freely or are they seized? If the compressor seems fine, add some refrigerant containing a leak-detecting dye. Where the dye appears is where there is a leak. Repair the leaking component and replace the receiver dryer. Then take the car to a shop for evacuation, leak testing, recharging with the refrigerant and oil.
