I am afraid it is not possible, especially on OVZ, from what i know, ports are hard-coded in the protocol.
If you look into dialing in to your house or a server behind a router/other firewall NAT, that is different, you need to forward some ports and allow protocol 47, but there are way better VPNs out there for this.
Do you know the best way to do this then? I ether need PPTP or IP Sec. Open VPN will NOT work for what I need.
Then you probably need a real IPv4 for the incoming connection.

You don't need any specific ports or a dedicated ip ^^ you just cant use pptp, which is not recommended anyway these days.
The VPN needs to be used on devices without installing anything on them (public computers), so it would need to be IP Sec, or PPTP. Security doesn't matter here. Do you have a similar install for one of those methods?
What about an http/socks5 proxy? I'm using 3proxy (the version from Github) and it's working great on my LES box.
http will definitely work, also socks, but not all software works with one, you may need to use both.
Then you probably need to use a proxy instead of a VPN then or get a VPS with a public IP sadly if the client software is not flexible enough to allow port selection.
If you get a box with a dedicated ipv4, you can probably use this:

The newer versions of squid can also listen on HTTPS, although you need a trusted certificate and a pac or chrome extension to configure it.
That said if it's a public computer will you even be able to set/change proxies OR even setup a vpn connection in the first place.
Use SSH: http://www.lowendguide.com/1/getting-started/creating-an-ssh-proxy-tunnel-with-putty/
PuTTY doesn't require an install.
May need firewall reconfig, though, depending on the rights of the user, that may not be possible. Not to mention potential corporate firewall issues.
