I would leave your hosting provider for doing something so stupid. Assuming that is not a possibility, though, it depends which OS the provider is running. The port is not set in your code if you use the PHP-internal mail() function.

For Windows, you must edit the file php.ini, which contains php configuration options. There is an option in there called "smtp_port." I would have thought that your provider would have to edit that, though.

Unix systems usually use sendmail (or a more recent comparable program) to send EMail, and you shouldn't need to edit anything with regards to that; that should be the job of your provider; you should not be able to edit that file, let alone see it. If you do have to do your own sendmail configuration... good luck.
