We need to change the hostname and port that the "View results in Splunk" link auto populates. Where is the proper place to change this setting in the config files?

The configuration file that you're looking for is alert_action.conf and attribute name is hostname.
http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Admin/Alertactionsconf

hostname = [protocol]<host>[:<port>]
* Sets the hostname used in the web link (url) sent in alerts.
* This value accepts two forms.
  * hostname
       examples: splunkserver, splunkserver.example.com
  * protocol://hostname:port
       examples: http://splunkserver:8000, https://splunkserver.example.com:443

You can also go to Settings > Server Settings > Email settings
and change "Link hostname" to the url you want.
