My guinea pig is a male and according to my book on guinea pigs males have a scent gland just above on their hind quarters you can see a sort of spot or mark (if your guineapig is short haired) and that is the gland (really grossly sticky so don't touch it). Basically he is marking his territory in case you were to introduce a new male to him he could show the new male who's boss!
Hope this helps!!
