Ping does not use a port number in the way we normally think about it. A port is associated with a socket that lives on the transport layer. You can't ping a specific port number as it is a completely different protocol/transport type from TCP, UDP, GRE, etc.

What Port Does Ping Use

Port 80 is for HTTP; Web pages. But ping is an elementary IP utility it is below Transport layer in the engineering so I don't think it uses any port.
But do check www.rfc-editor.org for a definitive word on this.

"ping is a computer network tool used to test whether a particular host is reachable across an IP network. Ping works by sending ICMP “echo request” packets."
You should also utilize the trace route command (tracepath/tracert/etc) to insure that your ping originates from an opening in your firewall to the desired port on the target computer.
Also, "organizations which maintains 'buffer' network(s) to shield said net from the raw internet, such a network is usually described as a DMZ. In such a scenario an organization would maintain both a network(s) that would allow ICMP packets to radiate within the internal (trusted network[s]), and disallow ICMP (ping) packets in a separated network that would more often than not include raw internet facing systems."

Ping is done by ICMP. ICMP does not use any port for ping . its uses sequence number instead of port number. when pc1 ping pc2 ICMP generates header and sequence the number.

you naughty little hacker!
you can ping any port you want.... depending upon which process you wish to interrupt!
ps
port 80 is the http port, and 8080 is an alternate http port.
