Since toolserver won't run ssh on port 443, and you need ssh on port
443, the easiest solution is to run ssh on port 443 on a computer you
control.
You can rent a cheap virtual shared server for $20 or less per month.
The resources required for ssh are very minimal, so the cheapest plan
will be sufficient. Install ssh on that server, make it listen on
port 443, and you're done.
If you don't want to spend the money to rent a server, and have a friend
with internet access, you might be able to convince them to make their
ssh server listen on port 443, and give you shell access on their
computer.
As a final option, perhaps you can find a public library that has
computers on which you can run a java ssh client, and carry your
private key on a usb drive.
