Go to the luci web interface --> Network --> Firewall --> Port Forwards and add "New port forward". It's self-explanatory

Or just enable UPnP on your router and let Plex figure it out.

Plex's ssl implementation doesn't play well with OpenWrt in my experience and simply adding a port forward has never worked for me, what does work for me is going to Network > DHCP and DNS > General Settings >  Domain whitelist in Luci and adding

plex.direct

Or just going into your Plex settings and allowing insecure connections. You can read about here if interested -

The discussion about router settings is at the bottom of the page.

I've never tried using the manual port forward, but with UPnP (and allowing plex.direct to be rebinded in dhcp settings) everything works. I've even gotten it to work with split tunneling.
