I don't know, I have a 92 F150, be careful you may be looking at the fuel line test port. Traditionally, red is high, blue is low. The low side "port" is usually near the accumulator and your cab evaporator, these components are in the low pressure side of the system as these are after what is known as the orifice tube.
Basically, high pressure exists in the compressor output and hose, condensor and hoses, and up to the orifice tube, the orifice tube is not a recognizable feature except it may be indicated by a machining crimp in one of the tubes leaving the condensor.
The evaporator is usually hidden away in the blower box, it is the device that cools the cab. The accumulator should be visible, and it may look like a big capsule and should have an electrical connector with two wires coming from it. The low side port should be near one of these components or just upstream or downstream as you follow the AC lines.

By theway, what you were looking at is the high side port.
