"503" means your squid still has ACL blocking outgoing requests to that
port. The access log shows its now coming in from the browser proeperly.

If you cant tell from reading the squid.conf what lines are denying the
request (probably its not listed in Safe_Ports) then a a look at
cache.log with "debug_options 28,8" will show you what the ACL are all
doing.
