superimpose your receptor PDB files with related structure OPM database
center your lipids in 0 by editconf command in gromacs

then you GPCR would be in the center of the lipids.

PS: 340 lipids is too big for a single GPCR, 140~160 would be enough 
before g_membed. You'd better read paper to see how many lipids did 
other people use.
