No, you can absolutely not assume that all ports are 80. The destination port is 80, but the source port could be pretty much anything, it gets randomized every new connection (this is a big part of the reason NAT works, for instance). I imagine that it would be hugely helpful for Verizon to have that information, it's much easier to then pick up the right connection from the deluge of wrong connections.
