Use the Alias Service Port (GUI) or Destination (TMSH) option on the monitor configuration. If set to * the monitor will use the port configured for the pool member. If set explicitly, the monitor will use the port you configure.
The port doesn't go into the Host header. That header is typically used to specify the hostname that the request is destined for (, etc.). It's a required header in HTTP/1.1 requests, but can be blank unless the server requires that a value be set (example: multiple sites running on the same port).
