See:

https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/blob/master/net/munin/files/org.macports.munin-cron.plist.in

It is supposed to be in the files directory along with the patches.

MacPorts only supports a single startupitem definition and doesn’t support periodic execution (every 5 minutes in this case).  To get around these problems, the munin port ships a launchd plist template in the files directory.  The reinplace fixes the path to the executable and then copies it into the destroot so it will be installed.

HTH,
