No problem. The RSYNC_RSH environment variable, or the -e option to
rsync, can take a command-line with options of its own; so if your
ssh was on port 666, you could use
export RSYNC_RSH='ssh -p 666'
or
rsync -e 'ssh -p 666' ...
You can also specify the port to use in .ssh/config, in a specific
"host" section for just that destination host, or in a wildcard
section (should be at the end) starting "host *".

I've never used rsync server; I've always and only used rsync over
ssh.
