Actually, you can, by inspecting $SendmailMacros{daemon_name}
That's not the port, but it's equivalent to the port (it's the Name= argument
of the DAEMON_OPTIONS m4 macro in sendmail.mc).
However, having said that...

It's indeed much better to check explicitly for authentication, as demonstrated
in this code. You may also want to log $SendmailMacros{"auth_authen"} as that
is the username that authenticated (so if spam is sent out via a weak password,
you at least know whose password was compromised).
