I have been seeing in my logs dropped packets for destination port 13851 for
quite awhile now. I could not find anything about tcp port 13581 though.

The only thing that I can find about 13581 is this:

What also worries me is that logwatch shows me the following dropped
packets ... all form China!

Â* From 211.93.109.128 - 39 packets to tcp(13581)
Â* From 211.93.109.129 - 24 packets to tcp(13581)

You on dynamic IP?

Background noise, forget it.

The logwatch is from a gateway connected via ADSL with a fixed IP.

Bang goes the idea it was previous user of your IP, sorry dunno

Note that this log is from a gateway connected via ADSL with a static IP.
x.x.x.x here is our IP. Here are some of the dropped SYN packets that were logged:

What I further noticed that iptables were dropping RST packets from the same set of source IPs ...
but to a different destination IP y.y.y.y. ( one that is not ours ) that is owned by another network:

Someone playing with nmap - Look at the TTLs. The source port numbers
suggest someone masquerading, but given the quite obvious inconsistencies
with other variables, I'd take that with some large quantity of salt.

Why are you seeing packets directed to "a different destination IP y.y.y.y."
You could make a complaint to your ISP - showing them this log.
