It really doesn't matter that much in the end. If a port is open, a port scan will find it.
Given the evidence so far, I'm assuming Comcast's security model for the cameras is less than special. Are you sure you want to open that port?
Sure, it's technically possible to forward an arbitrary external port to port 80 on an internal device - but Comcast apparently needs port 80 open on the WAN side.
It's all moot anyway - we don't have any cameras.
