welcome to WebmasterWorld, antwonw!
configure the service.outside.example.com VirtualHost to Listen on port 32400 and set the DocumentRoot for that hostname to the /web subdirectory.
this should give you some ideas about how to configure that - VirtualHost Examples - Apache HTTP Server:

The problem is that there is no real DocumentRoot to the /web. The Root is housed and generated in the program itself and pushed out to that port location.

I think you're talking at cross purposes :)
The root may or may not be a physical file that already exists. That part doesn't matter. What matters is what the user gets when they ask for the root.
Right now you've got what linguists call double markedness: :32400 AND /web
What happens if someone requests (explicitly, by type-in)
example.com:32400/ alone
or
example.com/web/ alone
or, for that matter,
example.com:32400/web
by name?
Do you want your alternative access routes to work instead of or in addition to the existing form? (This is probably an SEO question rather than an Apache question. The answer depends on whether this is a publicly accessible, indexed area, or something available only to people who know about it.)
My first reaction to your initial post was "Can't you just redirect?" That would be an alternative to futzing around with aliasing and listening.
I assume this isn't a Plex question, since there are a gazillion pages that talk about that.

example.com:32400/ = 401 Unauthorized
example.com/web/ = Not Found
example.com:32400/web = My service
So you're saying to just redirect in my registrars host records?
And yes, this is a Plex question. However in my defense, I search the forum before hand and did not find anything.
And sorry, I'm kind of a newbie at Apache.

please post your apache configuration directives relevant to this port and virtual host.
(using example.com for your domain, of course)

Well, I don't speak Apache either. I did a rudimentary google search-- global, not within this site-- for "port 32400" and all the answers seemed to be about Plex. Unfortunately the foregoing sentence represents the sum total of my knowledge on this subject ;)

Right now, nothing cause I'm not sure what to do.
I had at one point I had tried the following. However, it redirected all my traffic disregarding my main DocumentRoot. It also didn't work correctly in displaying my services content/Plex content.
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName home.example.com
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:32400/
ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:32400/
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/web
RewriteRule ^/$ /web/$1 [R,L]
</VirtualHost>
