And I had severe issues with a client connected to that port. But could a port issue really crash the system? Wouldn't it be more likely that it is the bus?

The error message originates from the pcieb (PCI-E bus controller):

161 fffffffff8077000   4440 228   1  pcieb (PCIe bridge/switch driver)

and yes it's likely the bus, as that message/panic happens after a bus scan.  I indicated e1000g3 so you could maybe see if the slot it was in was bad.

That's what I'd do.
