"ORPort auto" means let Tor pick. It picks at random (technically, I
think it lets the kernel pick and the kernel picks at random, but the
outcome is the same).

So you need to check Tor's logs on the bridge to see what it picked.
Asking Tor over its ControlPort is another option, albeit more advanced.
Look in the logs.
