For anybody interested or for future reference, it is possible to obtain
the current game server's port by listening to the 'server_spawn' event
and GetInt("port").Apparently it was to late to register it [with AddListener(...) ] in the standard LevelInit(...), I had originally tried moving it to the Load(...) method, which is typically the first to be called by the engine. This appears to be too early as adding the Listener here does not work. I added the Listener to LevelShutdown(...) which is called by the engine/game server after Load(...) and before LevelInit(...). Funnily enough it WORKED!. Having it registered here seems to be enough for the engine/game server event manager to handle it & correctly FireEvent(...) where you then capture it with the desired port attribute amongst other attributes. cheers. luke.
