A few hints:
- It goes the best in the latest version. In your case please see if your Portal version is 3.0.9.8.3 (Administer, Global settings, bottom of page). Many issues are solved in this patchset. You will have to apply it to both instances, and re-do your export job after the patch is applied.
- It is possible to copy over the complete database (with all datafiles).
- There is documentation on http://portalcenter.oracle.com that describes how to copy an entire Portal instance using export/import.

Portal 9.0.2 will have a 'wizard' doing stuff for you.

Good luck,
