Is the charging port on the L480 soldered onto the motherboard?

I’ve recently damaged my charging port(through physical means), so I’m wondering if I need to replace the entire motherboard or just the power jack itself. (I know the device title is the L450 but the L480 seems to be similar in design to the L450)
