I’ve only played with arduino once and never a Raspberry pi (I think it has a ton of different ports) and it probably depends on the model. So I can’t be of much help there.

How many pins does it have? If it’s a 9 pin arranged in two rows then it’s definitely a serial port. If it’s got 15 pins in three rows it’s probably a vga serial port for the monitor.
