In my case the ownership would belong to Macports, which I removed. However, I found there are still some files here and there that apparently belong to Macports and I would like to remove them as well.
Is there any way to list all files in a Mac terminal that have a specific owner?

You can use find tool for that:
find /path/to/search -user <username>
or if you want to list only files from current dir without subdirectories
find /path/to/search -maxdepth 1 -user <username>
Prepend -ls to have the output more like ls
find /path/to/search -user <username> -ls
