I want to be able to block out the ports Emule uses using the wireless router's interface.

What ports do I need to block?

4662 tcp and 4672 udp,

Dunno why you bother, its easy for them to just pick another port. Googling "emule" and "port" will bring them this

Is torrents or Emule that you want to block?

Block every port.

Open the ones you need to do whatever you do on the web.
