when running a ttest on the same variable of two different datasets, what value in the result of PROC TTEST function gives the p value that confirms the means are statistically different or random? IM not familiar with the notation

You would be looking for the Pr > |t|  (probability of getting a larger T statistic) column is the p-value.

The ROW depends on whether you have equal or unequal variances

 

Several of the SAS output table will reflect different test statistics so the Pr>T,  Pr> F ( a larger F statistic) depending on the proc and options used.
