It's not i2p port, it's the p2p (peer to peer) port.

1. You don't need to open that port unless you want to. It's only used
for serving blocks and transactions to other nodes. Monero's
documentation suggests to not open that port when using Tor.

Not to be confused with the rpc port (18081), which is opened when
wanting to create a remote node for light clients to connect to.

2. If you want to keep using sys-whonix as NetVM (better for privacy),
and you still want to open the port, use a Tor hidden service:
https://whonix.org/wiki/Hidden_Services.

You'll just have to advertise your onion address out of band somehow
because Monero doesn't have a setting like externalip= to let peers know
about your onion. Probably not worth it.

3. If you want to use sys-firewall you'll have to remove the
p2p-bind-ip=127.0.0.1 from the /lib/systemd/system/monerod.service file
on the TemplateVM. You will probably also have to allow the port forward
on your home router somehow.
