AC System 2000 5.0

I'm in the process of replacing the compressor, accumulator and orifice tube.
Could someone tell me where behind the front seat cold air gets it's cold air? Does it have a separate evaporator and orifice tube. If so how do I access the orifice tube for replacement?

No, the air simply comes from the front and has a separate blower mounted in the back of the console to pull air back there.

Thanks Joe! I appreciate the input.
Could you please respond to my post on getting the AC lines apart, also. Getting these lines apart is eating me up. The system has no pressure and I put some WD40 on the connectors but still no joy.
