So scrutinizing page 60 of RFC 5321, I see a list of opt-info
clauses which offers Additional-Registered-Clauses.  So I
propose a port clause, like this:

Received: from vance3.state.gov (vance.state.gov
[169.253.4.31])   by mail1.iecc.com ([64.57.183.56])
  with ESMTP via TCP port 1234 id 2467626873; 03 Jun 2011
14:34:46 -0000

Received: from cl-t108-372cl.privatedns.com
([2607:f748:1200:fa:230:48ff:febd:a370])   by mail6.iecc.com
([2001:470:1f07:1126::5370:616d:6d79])   with ESMTP via TCP
port 1234 id 2467293036; 28 May 2011 16:18:48 -0000

There is a registry for Additional-registered-clauses, which is
currently empty, but we could fix that.  Seems reasonable?

Yes.  I don't have a strong opinion about whether there should
be two port keywords or one with a syntax that could be used to
record one, the other, or both.

best,
