Are there _many_ on the list (rocketmouse:* in /usr/local)?

If not: A simple reinstallation of that port would be sufficient,
except you can easily spot the installation permissions from
the port's Makefile (in that case: do it manually).

The "find | grep" solution you're already using is sufficient
for checking. For correcting... it depends. In ultra-worst case,
re-install _all_ ports (portmaster -af plus options to avoid
undesired interactivity).
