You have the wrong path. Try this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\Orion\SyslogService.exe.config
To change the listening port, you need to search for and edit this line:
<add key="UDPListenPort" value="514"/>
Stop the service, edit the file, restart the service and then check your new binding via netstat -abo in command prompt.
